Papaver orientale, Linn. Oriental Poppy. Figs. 2752, 2753. Plants grow 3—4 ft. high, perennial, stiff-hairy, and bear fls. sometimes 6 in. or more across: lvs. hispid, pin-nately parted; lobes oblong-lanceolate, the upper lobes coarsely serrate and the lower incise-dentate: petals sometimes 6, obovate, narrowed below, scarlet with blackish base: caps, obovate, with a flat disk; stigmatic rays 13-15. Medit. region to Persia. B.M. 57. Gn. 24, p. 459; 42:584. Gn. M. 5:16. V. 12:33.—A popular perennial, new in many forms. The petals are originally apparently scarlet with a black spot. It was not until late in the 80's of the past century that this species made a decided break in color. A considerable class of hybrids with P. bracteatum has arisen which extends the color range through several shades of red to orange, salmon, and pale pink. Some are unspotted, some are adapted to cutting, and doubling has made some progress. Among the Latin names of varieties belonging to this class are grandiflorum, hybridum, immaculatum, nanum, splendens, Parkmanii, plenum, semi-plenum, and Sintenisii. Several have received common or personal names. Possibly some of these names belong rather with P. bracteatum.—Oriental poppies are better divided after blooming, in late July, or Aug., when they are dormant; but the roots should not be disturbed if the best bloom is expected the following season. They always grow in the autumn, and these divided plants would start away and make good growth. If divided in spring, they would not recover in time to bloom. Any extra-good variety may be increased largely by cutting the roots into short pieces. This also is best accomplished in summer. No plant is more brilliant in late spring or early summer than the oriental poppy, with its large fls., silken petals and flaming colors, although its season of bloom is short.

 Cut the stem of the flower off if you want a second flower, unless you want to keep the seeds.
 ===Propagation===
-Sow seeds after potential of frost when soil has thoroughly warmed. The seeds should be sown at a depth of about one cm, The average temperature should be approximately 70 °[[farenheit|F]] (21 °[[Celsius|C]]) for planting. Oriental Poppies do not handle transplanting well. Germination period is 10–20 days. Be careful not to over-water.
