The poppy (Papaver rhoeas) (also known as corn poppy, corn rose, field poppy, Flanders poppy, red poppy, red weed, and coquelicot) is a native of Europe, and notable as an agricultural weed (hence the terms "corn" and "field") and as a symbol of fallen soldiers. P. rhoeas sometimes is so abundant in agricultural fields that it may be mistaken for a crop. - Wikipedia

A wonderful burst of red for your garden that is also to be enjoyed as it emerges and as a seed head.
