Poppies – Papaver somniferum ‘Bowling Ball’ (how to sow and grow)

Papaver somniferum ‘Bowling Ball’ are the most pollinator friendly plants I have ever grown, the flowers are surrounded by bee’s.

In late Spring/ early summer flowers start to unfurl in shades of vibrant magenta red, purple and lilac.

After the petals drop giant seed pods start to develop, swelling up to 6cm in diameter!
