Planting & Care
Sow poppy seeds directly outdoors in early spring or fall. Prepare a fine seedbed in a sunny location with well-drained soil. Scatter seeds thinly and press them gently into the soil surface; do not cover deeply as light aids germination. Keep the soil consistently moist until seedlings emerge.
Once established, thin seedlings to the recommended spacing. Water regularly during dry spells, but avoid overwatering. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued blooming, or allow some flowers to go to seed for self-sowing.
