The Papaver nudicaule Colibri® Corallo, a special variety within the Colibri® series, is one of the most expressive and beloved poppies for cut flower use. This cultivar immediately stands out with its soft yet distinctive coral-like hues, ranging from warm salmon pink to subtle peachy orange. With its silky texture, natural elegance, and modern look, the Corallo is a favorite among florists and stylists seeking exclusive flowers with a refined, artistic look.
Like the other Colibri® selections, Corallo was developed for improved vase life, strong stems, and uniform blooms. This makes this poppy not only beautiful in a vase but also reliable for professional cut flower production.
The coral shade of Colibri® Corallo is a color that stands out without being overpowering. The flower unfolds like a delicate paper bowl, beautifully blending warm, summery nuances. This shade adds a romantic yet modern touch to floral arrangements, ideal for weddings, seasonal bouquets, Easter arrangements, and luxurious field bouquets.
With blooms measuring 6–10 cm, Corallo radiates a natural softness. Its charming, translucent petals subtly catch the light, making the poppy a stunning focal point in any composition.
The Corallo is highly regarded among florists and professionals thanks to a series of special properties:
Soft coral tones – A color that brings warmth, refinement and cheerfulness to any arrangement.
Strong, straight stems – Specially selected for cutting, so that the flower stays upright in the vase.
Reliable opening – Buds open beautifully after cutting, with an elegant flower shape.
Surprising versatility – Combines well with pastels and more bold colours.
Good vase life – One of the best performing Papaver nudicaule cultivars in the vase.
These properties make the Colibri® Corallo particularly suitable for both professional cultivation and artisanal floral applications.
Temperature, light, and drainage are crucial factors for growing Colibri® Corallo as a cut flower. The plant thrives in cool climates with ample sunlight and air circulation. The soil should be light and well-drained to promote strong stems and healthy roots.
Cultivation guidelines for growers:
Sowing: Sow early (winter – early spring) for an early and even flowering period.
Planting distance: 20–25 cm for optimal airflow and straight, sturdy stems.
Watering: Water moderately; avoid soggy soil. Poppies are susceptible to root rot.
Harvest time: Cut the stems as soon as the buds begin to color and are just about to open.
Aftercare: Briefly dip the stems in warm water or use a burning technique to stabilize the sap; follow with cut flower food.
