The beauty of Oriental Poppy as a garden flower is recognized by all, but many do not know to appreciate its value as a cut flower bloom. With a simple treatment of the cells, it can compete with a flower for decoration and shows, either alone or in combination with other flowers, is a consistent winner of blue ribbons.
Normally a poppy will begin soon after it is cut, since the milky sap seals the end of the stem and prevents the evaporation of water instead ofits petals. Singeing the end of the stem with a candle flame, immersion in boiling water or grinding is to prolong life.
To span the flowers fresh for their normal, you want to cut the stems of different lengths and they immediately brought into the gas or electric stove, hold the ends of the stems just above the flame and keep them there until the end and lights up like charred a coal, and the last two inches is well burned. This process takes between two and five minutes. Then place theFlowers into the water. They are from three days to a week, and the tribes, is never as flexible, or the leaves withered. Petals as they fall easily to the growing plant when they are old. The vase can even be set out in the sun without wilting.
Should for best results, fresh flowers are cut early in the morning when you are early enough, you have many flowers which have dropped, their green caps, but still find the process of developing their velvety petals. If youlater, and then choose flowers that have no pollen dust on their petals. When pollen dust is objectionable, the anthers with small scissors are removed.
Poppies can be cut in bud and sent to friends, if you see something new, you can see them. Burn the end of the stem in cold water for several hours, then put a pad of cotton wool around the end of the stem. Cover it with wax paper and keep a rubber band around it. There should be a bud that would open in a day orat least two, and that's a little difficult to assess because poppies do not show color, in advance of any showing by the side of color (is broken, and can continue for longer) for a week or unchanged before the opening. The only guide you have is that the mantle is thinner, a little drier and not quite so green when it is ready to break, too. With a little practice you will be able to judge it by the sense of the bud, which is slightly softer, but I think you're fine and larger flowers, by opening it up toon the plant. .
All Oriental Poppies make fine cut flowers, but there are a number of delicate pastel shades that are specifically good for flower arrangements, especially with the addition of Oriental Phalaenopsis orchids. Since some of these cutting delicate colors fade after a few hours of hot sun, I've always called it poppy. Exact color descriptions are very difficult to give.
All our modern Oriental Poppies have fine stiff stems, do not have those studs in the normalConditions, but if your situation is very windy or between tall plants are perennials, a ring peony support or a bamboo-packed game may be necessary to keep them straight.
