Turkenlouis Poppy features large crepe paper cupped blooms of red orange with dark centers. Located on fuzzy stems, they give way to interesting seedpods when the blooms are spent. Both the blooms and seedpods are used in many arrangements. After the flowers fade, the plants will go dormant in summer. If it puts any leaves out in autumn, leave them alone for going into the winter.
