Hugely popular dwarf variety of the Icelandic poppy, produces bowl-shaped papery flowers in shades of yellow, white, orange and red over many weeks in summer, above a neat mound of blueish-green foliage. Height and spread 30cm by 15cm. Tends to be short lived, but worth a place for its long and cheerful display. Ideal for the front of a sunny border or rock garden, in any well-drained soil.
