Default Propagating Patty's Plum poppy

My Patty's Plum poppy has flowered well, (unfortunately in the pot that
I inadvertently left on top of the rockery as I forgot what was in it!)

Whilst three flowers are of the usual dusky pink, one has unfurled with
the most wonderful deep burgundy coloured petals.

How can I propagate this, indeed can I?

Mostly I take root cuttings but am not sure why one part of the plant
should have developed this way, so I am unsure what portion of the roots
will control that colour.

Does Patty's Plum normally have a varied colouring to the flowers?
