Sowing Info
Direct sow seeds outdoors where they are to grow in spring or autumn. Choose a position in full sun on fertile, well-drained soil which has been raked to a fine tilth. Sow seeds thinly, just below the soil surface. Water the ground regularly, especially during dry periods.
Growing Info
When seedlings are large enough to handle, thin them out to 30cm (12in) apart.
Aftercare Info
Feed and water poppy plants frequently throughout the summer. Harvest seed pods once flowers have faded to use seeds in baking.
