Sowing Guide - Outdoors: Sow outdoors where they are to flower, 0.5cm (1/4") deep, directly into finely prepared soil which has already been watered. Seedlings usually appear in 14-28 days. Thin seedlings to 15cm (6") apart. Water well until plants are established. For a continuous display, make sowings at two to three weekly intervals. Sowings made in curves rather than straight lines often create a more pleasing effect. Late summer and autumn sowings will flower the following year, often earlier than spring sowings.
Soil Type: Well drained, fertile
Position: Full sun
Hints & Tips: Always sow poppies direct in their flowering position as their long taproots mean that they do not transplant easily.
