Botanical Name: Eschscholzia californica
Country of Origin: USA
Common Name: California Poppy
English Name: California Poppy Herb
Also Known As: California Poppy Herb Cut & Sifted, Eschscholzia californica Herb C/S, California Poppy Dried Herb, Poppy Herb C/S, California Poppy Aerial Parts, Dried California Poppy Herb
Part Used: Dried aerial parts of Eschscholzia californica, cut and sifted
Description: California Poppy Herb C/S is produced from the dried aerial parts of Eschscholzia californica, a perennial or short-lived annual plant native to the western regions of North America. The plant grows in open meadows and grasslands, forming upright stems that typically reach 30–60 cm in height. It features finely divided, bluish-green leaves and bright orange to yellow flowers. The aerial parts are harvested during active growth, carefully cleaned and dried to preserve the plant’s natural green to muted brown tones.
Eschscholzia californica produces slender stems with alternate, dissected leaves and delicate flowers that emerge seasonally. The cut-and-sifted herb retains the fibrous texture of the stems and leaves, preserving the structural detail and subtle colour variations.
The harvested aerial parts are gently washed to remove field residue and dried using controlled warm-air or shade-drying methods to reduce moisture while maintaining structural integrity. Once dried, the material is mechanically cut into uniform pieces and sifted to ensure consistent size and texture. This process produces a stable, clean plant-based ingredient.
Uses: California Poppy Herb C/S is used in botanical craft blends, layered jar arrangements, potpourri-style displays, resin art, and educational herb kits. Its delicate stems, finely divided leaves, and natural colour variations make it ideal for decorative purposes, visual presentations, and creative botanical projects. The cut-and-sifted herb can be incorporated into layered floral art, botanical mixtures, and plant-based displays requiring uniform, manageable plant fragments.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, dark place in an airtight container. Refrigeration not required.
