Papaver burseri identification

[Sheep]

Hi,

Could anybody possibly please advise me if Papaver burseri has petals that are entirely white or if they can have a greenish yellow area at the base?

I have a book about poppies that describes them as "purest white" or something similar but I am not sure if that means completely white.

Many thanks.

I've only seen plants in cultivation with flowers that are entirely white - and the photos I've seen from the wild seem to be that way too - but that's not definitive

Many thanks.

Nick,
Papaver burseri is native to north-easterly Alps. It is completely white.

Franz,
Thank you for the additional information and for confirming that it is completely white.

Thank you so much for posting this picture. Looking at this I think the petals are a different shape too.
