Light, airy and full of charm, Mr Fothergill’s Poppy ‘Iceland Mixed Colours’ produces a stunning mix of silky, cup-shaped blooms in soft pastels and bright tones—think whites, yellows, oranges and pinks dancing above fine, fern-like foliage.
Each flower sits on slender stems, gently swaying in the breeze and catching the light with their almost translucent petals. The result is a soft, natural look that brings movement and colour to garden beds, borders and cottage-style plantings.
Flowering over an extended period in cooler to mild conditions, Iceland poppies are perfect for adding seasonal colour and also make beautiful, delicate cut flowers.
Tip: Sow directly where they are to grow, as poppies don’t like root disturbance. Keep soil lightly moist during germination, but avoid overwatering once established to prevent rot.
