Corn Poppy Tincture
Our Corn Poppy Tincture is prepared from the brilliant red petals and tender aerial parts of Papaver rhoeas, traditionally known as the field poppy or remembrance poppy. Far gentler than its opiate cousins, this species carries a history of soothing restless minds and comforting heavy hearts. This extract is crafted to preserve its delicate alkaloids, flavonoids, and anthocyanins—offering a nervine ally as tender as it is effective.
Scientific Profile
Papaver rhoeas is chemically distinct from Papaver somniferum, yet offers its own suite of calming phytochemicals:
Rhoeadine alkaloids: Mild sedative alkaloids unique to corn poppy, believed to soothe the nervous system without strong narcotic effects
Anthocyanins: Pigments with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory potential
Mucilage compounds: Gently demulcent, especially soothing for dry cough or tension held in the chest and throat
Flavonoids: Support vascular health and calm systemic agitation
Corn poppy is often used in European herbal traditions as a gentle sleep aid, especially for children or those sensitive to stronger sedatives. It is ideal for easing tension without dulling clarity.
Energetic & Traditional Wisdom
Corn poppy carries the medicine of grief’s release and the soft dissolution of anxiety. Its red petals flutter like flags of surrender to the heart’s deeper wisdom—asking us to rest, release, and re-root. Traditionally used in remembrance rituals, it soothes the sorrow held in the lungs and the quiet turmoil behind the eyes.
Energetically, it offers lunar medicine: moistening dryness, slowing mental overactivity, and bringing dreams closer. Corn poppy walks the boundary between worlds—day and night, waking and dreaming, sorrow and solace.
How to Use
Take 1–2 dropperfuls in a small amount of water up to 3x daily, or before bed. Can be safely combined with other gentle nervines and heart herbs. Use with intention and care for emotional release, sleep support, or when facing internal unrest.

Safety & Contraindications:
