California Poppy Red Chief

Eschscholzia californica. Bold and fiery, Red Chief California Poppy brings a dramatic burst of deep scarlet-red blooms to the garden. Its silky, cup-shaped flowers pop against soft, fern-like blue-green foliage, creating a striking contrast that draws the eye. This variety adds intensity and warmth to borders, rock gardens, and wildflower meadows.

A sun-loving, drought-tolerant annual, Red Chief is easy to grow and quick to bloom, thriving in poor soils and low-water conditions. It’s a favorite for attracting pollinators and perfect for gardeners seeking vivid color with minimal effort. Let it self-sow for a fiery return season after season.
