There are over 60 species of true poppies (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.finegardening.com\/genus\/papaver\"><i>Papaver <\/i><\/a>spp. and cvs., Zones 3\u20139), which have a native distribution throughout northern and southern Africa, western Asia, southern and central Europe, and western North America. Their family, <i>Papaveraceae<\/i>, contains 42 additional genera, including other common garden plants like bleeding heart (<i>Lamprocapnos spectabilis<\/i>\u00a0and cvs., Zones 3\u20139).<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Poppy varieties generally prefer average to poor soil and full sun, and are tolerant of dry conditions. Typically, the plants are hairy and exude sap that makes them resistant to browsing from deer and other herbivores. Many commonly grown poppies are annuals, completing their life cycle in a single season but persisting in the garden through reseeding. Others are short-lived perennials that are often grown functionally as annuals. Most selections are only available to purchase as seed. While they are easy to grow, knowledge and effort are required. With all the different species and selected varieties, poppies are a wonderful low-stakes way to experiment with color while adding ephemerality and serendipity to beds and borders.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Read More:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finegardening.com\/article\/Interesting-poppy-like-flowers-for-your-garden\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Try These 4 Poppy-Like Plants<\/a><\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Perennial poppy varieties provide years of bold color and may self-sow<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<hr\/>\n<h3 class=\"p1\">Oriental poppies are reliable perennials with a wide variety of cultivars to choose from<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_227962\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-227962\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-227962\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Oriental poppy\u00a0 <em>Photo by Adobe Stock<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"p2\"><i>P. orientale <\/i>and cvs.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Zones:<\/span><span class=\"s2\"> 3\u20137<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s3\">Size:<\/span> Variable, typically up to 3 feet tall and 2 feet wide<\/li>\n<li class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s3\">Conditions:<\/span> Full sun; medium, well-drained soil<\/li>\n<li class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s3\">Native range:<\/span> Caucasus Mountains, Iran, and Turkey<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"p2\">Oriental poppy is the most common true perennial poppy available to gardeners. Along with the straight species (photo above), a variety of cultivars are available that display large flowers in shades of red, orange, pink, mauve, and white. The plants have basal rosettes of bright green, toothed leaves. Blooms emerge in mid-spring, typically from mid-May through early June. These poppies will disappear in summer heat and humidity but begin growing again when the temperatures cool off, and will return for the upcoming year.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">Add them alongside other perennials that will continue to grow as the season progresses to ensure that summer gaps are filled. Maintenance is simple\u2014a cutback to the ground after they have faded for the summer is typically all that\u2019s required.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_227963\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-227963\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-227963\" src=\"https:\/\/images.finegardening.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/03\/30204719\/FG227KU-Papaver-oriental-Royal-Wedding_3364FG_DoreenWynja.com_.jpg\" alt=\"Papaver oriental 'Royal Wedding' \" width=\"1400\" height=\"934\" srcset=\"https:\/\/images.finegardening.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/03\/30204719\/FG227KU-Papaver-oriental-Royal-Wedding_3364FG_DoreenWynja.com_.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/images.finegardening.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/03\/30204719\/FG227KU-Papaver-oriental-Royal-Wedding_3364FG_DoreenWynja.com_-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/images.finegardening.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/03\/30204719\/FG227KU-Papaver-oriental-Royal-Wedding_3364FG_DoreenWynja.com_-1200x801.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/images.finegardening.com\/app\/uploads\/2026\/03\/30204719\/FG227KU-Papaver-oriental-Royal-Wedding_3364FG_DoreenWynja.com_-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\"\/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-227963\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Papaver orientale<\/em> <span class=\"s2\">\u2018Royal Wedding\u2019\u00a0 <\/span><em>Photo by DoreenWynja.com<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"p3\"><strong><span class=\"s2\">\u2018Royal Wedding\u2019<\/span><\/strong> is a selection that blooms with semidouble pure white petals that graphically contrast with the black patches at the base.

In typical garden soil, it will need to be occasionally reseeded. This species is best used as a connecting thread, polka-dotted throughout the garden.

The timeline of direct-sowing should mimic when the plants would naturally disperse their seeds. For poppies, this would be anywhere from late fall through early spring. Since many poppy species are disturbance adapted, germination will improve if the soil in the immediate area is scratched up.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i>Tess Kuracina is the director of living collections and curator of herbaceous plants at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nybg.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">New York Botanical Garden<\/a>.<\/i><\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p class=\"p6\"><strong><span class=\"s5\">PLANT SOURCES<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p6\"><span class=\"s1\">The following mail-order sources may offer some of the plants featured in this article: <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"p8\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dutchgrown.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dutch Grown<\/a>,<\/strong> West Chester, PA;
