I am currently searching for seeds of Eschscholzia californica var. aurantiaca. From what I understand, it is a variety with orange flowers, which matches the description of the Eschscholzia variety you supply. I am curious whether you know the variety of Eschscholzia you have for sale, and if not, whether there are other orange-flowering varieties of this species? Thanks for your time,According to the International Plant Name Index (https://www.uk.ipni.org/ipni/query_ipni.html), the scientific variety name Eschscholzia californica var. aurantiaca does not exist. Instead, 'Aurantiaca' is a horticultural cultivar that is properly notated as Eschscholzia californica 'Aurantiaca'. This seems to be a minor distinction to most gardeners but it can be important when searching by computer in databases or on the Internet.
