Papaver orientale ‘Pinnacle’ (bare root)
The giant poppy ‘Pinnacle’ is a unique variety with striking petals in both red and white, complemented by a dark purple centre. It creates a naturally beautiful yet eye-catching presence in the garden and is especially lovely when paired with meadow-style ornamental grasses.

Flowering time: June–August
Height: 50–70 cm
Position: Full sun in well-drained, light soil. Drought tolerant.
Planting distance: 35–40 cm
Other: Deer resistant and slug resistant. Attracts butterflies and pollinators.
Important - The bare-root plant should be planted as soon as possible after you bring it home, as the roots are sensitive to drying out. If the ground is frozen, you can plant it in a pot and place it in a bright, cool location. It also works well to keep the roots in the bag. Lightly mist the roots and store the bag in a cool, dark place.
At sub-zero temperatures, we include a heat pack in the parcel at no extra cost to prevent the giant poppies (bare root) from freezing during delivery.
Soak the roots in room-temperature water before planting. Long roots may be trimmed slightly, but should not be bent. Place the buds or crown just below the soil surface. Position the pot in sun to partial shade; in the garden it also thrives in sun or partial shade. Use light, well-aerated soil and choose a well-drained spot that is not too wet. Keep the soil lightly moist, never soggy, and increase watering as the plant establishes and produces more foliage.
