Papaver aculeatum
“South African Poppy”

This rare annual poppy has the distinction of being the only species native to South Africa. The single flowers are orange with yellow stamens, and the whole plant is markedly bristly. It grows to 1’-2’ tall. So, if you’re a poppy enthusiast, you might want
to save the seed for yourself due to its rarity in cultivation.
