Red Corn Poppy Seeds
October 14, 2008
Poppies always make eye-catching flowers that are beautiful to have in a garden. Red corn poppies are one of the most eye-catching because of their intense, bright color. The color is an extremely bright red with a black center that contrasts spectacularly with the red petals. They grow into large plants, about 2’ high, and have flowers that are as large as 4” across. They bloom from the earliest spring days through the heat of July.
Red corn poppy seeds can be planted around the mailbox, along the edges of a walkway or in a flowerbed for a dramatic statement. They also make great border flowers to separate different areas of your garden. They will grow well in full sunlight, but they will also thrive in partial shade. If you live in a drought-prone area, red corn poppy seeds are the perfect seeds to plant. They have a strong resistance to drought and will grow in the driest of summers.
Planting red corn poppy seeds is a great way to ensure that your spring garden will have a vibrant burst of color. The deep red color of the flowers and the large size of the blooms makes the red corn poppy an unforgettable plant.
