A Tasmanian flower farmer, Kate Dixon, who planted a new line of “really beautiful poppies” has issued a warning to other gardeners after learning she had mistakenly grown opium poppies.
Kate Dixon, who operates a commercial flower farm at Clifton Beach, about 25km south of Hobart, said she received a call from the authorities earlier this month after they saw a photo of her frilly pink poppies on Instagram.
Dixon said she took “full responsibility” for not spotting the flowers earlier but said the seeds were widely available.
