I was at Walmart this weekend and found some Iceland Poppy plants. I know you can feed California Poppy but is Iceland Poppy ok to feed my DT?

Thanks.

Hi way2gfy,

Well,Thanks for asking such an interesting things regarding Poppy plant.I want to give some information regarding poppy plant as I have experience with that caring of that plant.
The Iceland Poppy is a boreal flowering plant. Native to sub-polar regions of northern Europe and North America, Iceland poppies are hardy but short-lived perennials,grown as biennials, that yield large, papery, bowl-shaped, lightly fragrant flowers supported by hairy, 1-foot, curved stems among feathery blue-green foliage 1-6 inches long. They were first described by botanists in 1759. The wild species blooms in white or yellow, and is hardy from USDA Zones 3a-10b. All parts of this plant are likely to be poisonous, containing (like all poppies) toxic alkaloids.

Thanks

Well that doesn't make sense since California Poppy is ok for a DT to eat.

I guess that will be a plant that just grows in my front yard.

Thanks.
