Oriental Poppy 'Beauty of Livermere' 1 Litres
3 FOR £12
Beauty of Livermere' is a perennial poppy that can grow up to 1 metre tall. It has toothed and bristly lance-shaped leaves that can reach up to 30 cm in length. The plant produces single, deep scarlet flowers that are approximately 20 cm across in late spring and early summer. Each petal of the flower has a bold black blotch at the base. The flowers are large, pillar-box red, and exuberant, with velvety, dark centers that contrast with the silky tissue-paper petals. Although the flowers are short-lived, they are easy to grow, and each plant can produce several flowers. If cut back after flowering, they may even produce a second flush.
'Beauty of Livermere' is a great addition to any sunny border, and it pairs well with grasses or late summer-flowering perennials, which can provide interest when the plant dies back. The plant brings a zing to any planting scheme and is known for its sumptuous and striking flowers.
