The beautiful, tender Icelandic Poppy, which pleases us with its many, colourful, delicate blossoms in spring, might disappear from our gardens in the next decades. The biennial to perennial shrub indeed originates from Iceland and loves the subarctic climate. Iceland poppy, therefore, prefers meagre, rather sparse soils and a cool climate. Then, it also tolerates longer drought periods well. If the plant likes its assigned location, it can establish itself well there and, absolutely, grow for several years. Often, it can, however, only be found in the garden short-termed. With a bit of luck, the shrub resows itself in other locations. Other than with other poppy varieties, the blossom colour of a plant can change. There are all kinds of shades from white to yellow, orange, and pink in the most beautiful pastel shades. Several useful insects live off the blossoms' nectar. Icelandic poppy is, therefore, a very high-yielding bee plant as its heyday can range from May to August. If you cut the buds shortly before blossoming, Icelandic poppy is also well-suited as a cut flower for the vase.
