Plant of the Day
Thursday 11 June 2026
Cedric Morris was an artist and plantsman who collected variations of annual poppies he noticed in local arable fields. This plant continues as seed sold as Papaver rhoeas 'Cedric Morris' (poppy, corn poppy). The flowers come in dusky shades of silvery pink, lavender, mauve and white. Plants thrive in any well-drained fertile soil in full sun.
