Day 12 Advent Calendar: Californian Poppy 'Thai silk'

A gorgeous funky version of the traditional bright orange Californian poppy. These Thai Silk poppies are annuals with attractively dissected, blue-green foliage. There is a mix of single and double petalled flowers, in a range of shades of cream, yellow, orange, and pink, sometimes with a cream centre. They are really gorgeous flowers. These are direct sown and are best sprinkled on poor soil conditions.
