The corn poppy (Papaver rhoeas) is an annual plant with delicate, fiery red flowers and fine, silky petals. It flowers in early summer, scattering gardens and fields with vivid patches of colour. The plant self-seeds readily, prefers sun and ordinary soils, and does not tolerate transplanting. The short-lived flowers attract bees, and the decorative seed capsules can be used dried. The corn poppy is an emblematic flower, a symbol of summer and open fields.
