    I had this poppy for many years growing in a corner, however recently a series of cold springs took their toll and last years drought seems to have finished it off.
    Unfortunately I cannot find a supplier does any one on here have any ideas.
    There is no longer a national collection of Papaver orientale.

    Is it the same plant as Little Dancing Girl? (Literal trans. of the name.) If so J Parker's offer it - out of stock at the moment, but will email you when it is back.

      Thank you @Clare G I'll sign up for notification.
      Yes Kleine Tanzerin and Little Dancer are the same plant.
      If you like Oriental Poppies then you might find this article interesting https://www.hortmag.com/plants/oriental
      I might be looking for some of the other von Zepplin hybrids mentioned.
