Help -I'm after a plant but I can't remember what it's called

[DigOutThoseLemonHandWipes]

Last year my Mum mentioned that she was.looking for a particular plant but couldn't find it. I'd love to surprised her with it as she is 100's of miles away stuck in lockdown alone. I think it was a type of poppy but it flowered with different coloured flowers on the same plant. I would probably recognise the name if I saw it. Does anyone have any idea what it might be?

How lovely that you found it!

A couple of years ago, I bought an oriental poppy 'Checkers' which is white with a black centre, and it flowered with both pale pink and white flowers. I'm guessing that there are actually two plants close together, which can happen sometimes by the grower.

Anyway, I hope your mum enjoys her plants!

@NanTheWiser I hope she does - I feel so sorry for her stuck on her own without her children/grandchildren nearby so even now we can see people we can't see her.as it would need an over night stay.

Is it jalapa mirabilis which really can have different coloured flowers on the same plant, e.g. pink flowers, yellow flowers and even half-pink and half-yellow flowers?

Sorry, I didn't realise you'd found what you were looking for!
