Papaver somniferum 'Ikkanshu?!!!'


SEE NOTES AND COMMENTS BEFORE BUYING!


Rare Japanese pharmaceutical poppy.


I have had a few people asking me if I had any seeds from this strain. But I haven’t been looking for new poppies to grow for a couple of years so hadn’t heard of it. I have acquired a bit more land to grow stuff on, so decided to look them up. The only site I have found is a US one, that is selling a pure white strain for a criminal about of money. I have bought some and will attempt to grow some this season. I may not have a lot this season, but I will regrow them next year [2018]. I will be selling them for a reasonable price as well.


NOTE: I HAVE NOT SOURCED THESE SEEDS FORM A TRUE AND TRUSTED SOURCE. SO, I HAVE NO IDEA IF THESE SEEDS ARE 100% THE REAL DEAL.


This plant looks like a white Kykeon Afghan, you do get the odd pure white flower from this form. the flower looks the same, the leaves look the same, the pods look the same and the seeds are the extract same colour!!!


In my option this guy has bought some seed from me in the past, got a pure white flower and then decided to pass it off as Ikkanshu, and then charged people $39.00 for 100 seeds. Mr Organical Botanicals Dot Com is a crook, beware!!!!


That said if you want a pure white form of the pink and white Kykeon Afghan this is the one for you!
