Papaver bracteatum

''Papaver bracteatum'', also known as the Iranian poppy and Persian poppy and the great scarlet poppy is a sturdy hardy perennial poppy with large deep red flowers up to 8 inches (20 cm) diameter on stiff stalks up to 4 feet (1.22 metres) high with a prominent black spot near the base of the petals. It is related to the commonly cultivated oriental poppy, ''Papaver orientale''.
==Uses==
This species is grown to produce thebaine, which is commercially converted to codeine and semi-synthetic opiates. ''Papaver bracteatum'' does not contain morphine, codeine or any other narcotic alkaloids in significant amounts. Oripavine was reported in minute traces but would not exert a relevant activity.〔Von Lyle E. Craker, James E. Simon (Eds.) (1991). ''Herbs, Spices, and Medicinal Plants: Recent Advances in Botany, Horticulture, and Pharmacology Vol. II.'' (p. 69) Binghamton NY: The Haworth Press Inc. (LCCN 86-646860 )〕
United States domestic cultivation of ''P. bracteatum'' was proposed by president Richard Nixon's Office of Management and Budget in the early 1970s as an alternative to Turkish opium poppies, which the administration was attempting to eliminate. This was because ''P. bracteatum'' does not contain morphine, which is converted to heroin, but is high in thebaine for legal codeine production, which was in crisis at the time because of the dwindling Turkish supply. However, US government scientists feared Bentley compounds,〔BENTLEY, K. W. & HARDY, D. G. (1967) Novel analgesics and molecular rearrangements in the morphine-thebaine group. III. Alcohols of the 6,14-endo-ethenotetrahydrooripavine series and derived analogues of N-allylnormorphine and norcodeine. J. Am. Chem. Soc., 89, 3281-3292.〕 opioids thousands of times more potent than heroin, would replace heroin in the US.
