Product Description - Papaver (orientale) Harlem
The Oriental poppy "Harlem" (Papaver Orientalis "HARLEM") is a perennial herb with spectacular flowers. The height of the bush is 70 cm. Erect stems are crowned with cup-shaped, wide-open, large flowers - up to 18 cm in diameter. The flowers are vibrant, burgundy pink with a black center. Blooms in mid-May - mid-June for 30 days. The leaves are large, pinnately dissected, ornamental, stiffly pubescent, green with silvery hairs, collected in a basal rosette. To create an impressive effect, plant the plants in groups of several pieces each. For oriental poppies, allocate a lot of space, as the bushes overgrow and can grow for many years in one place.
Poppy is undemanding to soil and moisture. But it needs a bright sunny place. To make the plants grow strong and give many flowers, plant them in fertile soil. Oriental poppy will not die even in the driest summer. But it is better not to test it and water it if necessary. The plant can withstand frosts down to - 40 ° C.

How to Plant - Papaver (orientale) Harlem
Guide and tips for planting papaver plants
-
Choose the planting location: Papaver plants prefer full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. Avoid planting in areas with standing water or where the soil remains soggy after rainfall.
-
Prepare the soil: Loosen the soil and remove any weeds or debris from the planting area. Amend the soil with compost or organic matter to improve the soil's fertility and drainage.
-
Dig a hole: Dig a hole deep enough to accommodate the roots of the plant. The hole should be slightly wider than the spread of the roots.
-
Place the plant in the hole: Carefully remove the plant from its container and gently loosen any tangled roots. Place the plant in the hole and backfill with soil, making sure the crown of the plant, where the roots meet the stem, is level with the soil surface. Press down firmly to eliminate air pockets.
-
Water the plant: Give the plant a thorough watering after planting to settle the soil around the roots. Continue to water the plant regularly to keep the soil evenly moist until the plant becomes established.
-
Mulch the plant: Add a layer of organic mulch around the plant to help retain moisture and suppress weed growth. Keep the mulch a few inches away from the base of the plant to prevent rot.
-
Monitor the plant: Keep an eye on the plant's growth and water it regularly as needed. Papaver plants generally bloom in late spring to early summer and may require occasional deadheading to encourage continued blooming.
