Lilac Pompom Breadseed Poppy Seeds
Lilac Pompom Breadseed Poppies are giving us high-fashion meets cottage-garden meets 80's-pastels vibes, which is the best trifecta ever.
Pompom Breadseed Poppies are the absolute funkiest, with a shaggy mop of petals that form a big peony-shaped bloom all summer long. Easy to grow, they will happily set seed to come back subsequent years.
Includes 50 seeds.
