Heirloom Poppies - Hungarian Breadseed

(Papaver somniferum)

Baking with poppy seeds is a centuries-old tradition, and easy to grow, cold-tolerant poppies are a joy in the spring garden. This large-podded Eastern European heirloom strain has luminous, ethereal white or pale lavender-pink petals with contrasting dark center blotches and blue-green toothed leaves. The eye-catching flowers are followed by urn-shaped deco- rative pods full of tasty seeds delicious for cooking and baking. Homegrown poppy seed is wonderfully fresh, sweet and nutty tasting - you’ll love it!
