In the diminutive size popularized by traditional California Poppies, our Red Chief California Poppy seeds produce the same height and shape, but in a vibrant red-orange hue. Feathery blue-green foliage provides a nice base and color contrast to the striking firey color. Plant en masse for that more naturalized, meadow look of poppies waving in the wind. A superb choice for hot and arid regions, plant Red Chief Poppies in full sun.
