Heartbeat "Super" Poppy

A member of the long-awaited "Super-Poppy" series, Heartbeat is an interspecific hybrid, incorporating Oriental and other types of perennial poppies. Super Poppies are large perennial plants with shiny leaves and large flowers with thick glossy, long-lasting petals. Plants stay green longer and bloom 2 or 3 times per season. The color is deep maroon and the flowers are very large with a double row of extra-thick petals and frilly edges. Both the foliage and the leaves exhibit superior substance and a characteristic gloss, which enables them to hold up and last longer in the sun, wind, and rain. Especially vigorous and sturdy upright growth habit with reliable re-blooming capability in September. Sometimes a third flush is possible with Super Poppies. These are a "must" for the June Garden.
