The beauty of 'Amazing Grey' is beyond compare! Crepe-paper like blooms unfurl into single and half-double blooms, each unique. Bred over 18 years from a single bloom in the Mother of Pearl poppy blend, the breeder isolated the purple-grey flowers, although you may see an occasional burgundy bloom. A practically care-free annual and a pollinator favorite, these poppies reseed making them ideal for naturalized areas. A 2018 Fleuroselect Novelty award winner. Drought tolerant and deer resistant.

    Purchased this seed packet beginning of 2021, really looking forward to this shade of flower, however, yhe poppies are blooming red. Still beautiful! Just not what I ordered.

    Got off to a slow start because of all the rain here in the northeast. They finally blossomed but were small. I hope they reseed for next year, hopefully a better growing season.

    I ordered a gray poppy, but I'm so sad that it's red.

    These were special. Planted them in the garden with the veggies. So delicate and plentiful.
