Discover Afghan Pink — a lesser-documented heirloom landrace believed to originate in Afghanistan’s northern or central provinces, such as Balkh or Bamiyan. Its soft pink petals were selected over generations by local farmers for their beauty and cultural meaning.

Why gardeners love Afghan Pink:

• Distinctive Color — A soft pink hue, rarer than typical red/purple poppy varieties
• Cultural Heritage — In rural Afghanistan, pink poppies are traditionally planted near homes as a symbol of prosperity and protection
• A Preserved Legacy — This landrace survived decades of regional upheaval through small-scale, quiet cultivation by local growers determined to keep it alive
• Bee & Pollinator Favorite — Like all poppies, an excellent nectar source for pollinators
• OSSI Pledged Seed — Certified through the Open Source Seed Initiative (osseeds.org) — free to save, replant, and share, forever

We’re proud supporters of 1% for the Planet (onepercentfortheplanet.org) and Bee Better Certified (beebettercertified.org) — a portion of every sale goes toward pollinator habitat and conservation.
