Price range: $349.00 through $1,340.00
Exceptionally rare Extra Large (XL Giganteum) dried poppy heads (Papaver somniferum) measuring 54mm+ (2.12″+) in diameter. Hand-selected from top-tier harvests, these massive, statement pods feature thick outer walls, dramatic star crowns, and robust stems. Available in flexible stem-count packs (10, 25, 50 heads) and custom bulk weight options.
Unrivaled Botanical Scale & Rare Architectural Impact
Our Extra Large Dried Poppy Heads represent the top 2% of naturally harvested Papaver somniferum crops. Hand-sorted to guarantee pod head diameters of 54mm or larger (with select pods exceeding 60mm), these rare “Giganteum” specimens offer a commanding focal point that standard commercial pods simply cannot match.
Each pod features a dense, heavy-walled seed chamber topped with a broad, fully developed stigmatic star crown. Naturally air-cured to lock in rich woody tan, sand, and soft taupe color profiles, these pods are preserved without bleaching agents, synthetic dyes, or harsh chemical treatments.

How large are "Extra Large" (54mm+) dried poppy heads?
Our Extra Large (XL) poppy heads are sorted to measure 54mm (2.12 inches) or larger in pod diameter across their widest point. They represent the largest, rarest size class harvested from Papaver somniferum crops.
Can I buy XL poppy heads in smaller quantities instead of a 1kg box?
Yes! In addition to our 1kg bulk box, we offer XL poppy heads in 10-pod sample packs, 25-pod collector packs, and 50-pod studio packs so you can order the exact quantity needed for your design project.
How many XL poppy heads are in a 1kg box?
Because XL Giganteum heads have significantly thicker shell walls and larger seed chambers, a 1kg box contains approximately 80 to 110 pods. Exact counts vary slightly as products are sold strictly by net weight.
