ABOUT
CALIFORNIA POPPIES

The
California Poppy, a vigorous bloomer, is highly drought-tolerant and tends to
perform well in just about any environment, even arid and inhospitable ones.
These beauties are easy to grow and require virtually no care

WHEN TO
PLANT POPPY SEEDS

We
highly recommend sowing seeds directly in the garden at the last spring frost
date, but if necessary to start your seeds indoors, do so 2-3 weeks prior to
the last frost. California Poppies do not like their roots disturbed and
therefore should not be transplanted.

WHERE TO
PLANT POPPY SEEDS

California
Poppies performs best in full sun, in sandy, poor to average, well-drained
soils. They are heat and drought tolerant and are lovely additions to beds and
borders, containers, rock gardens, and along paths or walkways.

HOW TO
PLANT POPPY SEEDS

Poppy
seeds need to be cold stratified to germinate.

These
poppies germinate most successfully in cool to moderate temperatures and they
are, in fact, frost tolerant. Poppies flower best under cool spring weather
conditions. Bloom decreases on poppies as temperatures increase in summer
months.

If
needed, add 2″ of compost to your soil to promote drainage. Sow seeds
shallowly with just 1/16″ layer of soil to cover them, spaced about
6-8″ apart.

HOW TO
CARE FOR POPPIES

Seedlings
should sprout in 14-21 days. Thin seedlings to about 8″ apart.

Poppies
should be watered regularly, but they can tolerate dry conditions. It is not
necessary to fertilize poppies.

It
generally takes about 60 to 90 days for poppies to bloom after the seed is
planted. This timing depends very much on your growing zone and when you plant,
along with Mother Nature’s cooperation. The bloom season for poppies is spring
to summer. Poppy plants will bloom for a few weeks, but the length of bloom
time can be extended by regular watering and application of mulch for moisture
retention, as well as regular deadheading of spent flowers. It is also
recommended that the seed be sown in successive plantings to extend the bloom
season of the poppies.

Store Policies

All seeds will come in a resalable plastic zip lock bag and placed
in a bubble envelope so the seeds are not damaged by shipping machines. All
seed packets contain no fillers or other weeds or seeds mixed in. Most have
been harvested by hand & all test at a high germination rate.

Seed Information

We guarantee that all seed orders will contain the quantity
ordered. Unlike many sellers who sell seeds by weight, all seed our counts are
almost always correct, as the seeds are packaged and counted by hand. Seed
packages are all double checked to insure accuracy. We do our best and will
often add extra seeds.

We are a seller that caters to experienced gardeners. (germination
and plant care information is readily available online. Most of our listings
include germination instructions, so we do not ship growing instructions.

All My Seeds Are Sold Fresh So You Can Plant them Anytime within 2
years from Purchase

***Note: It is normal for
tropical seed germination to be sporadic from as little as 30 days to 6 months
or more- so patience is required. Buyers should do their own research for plant
uses if needed.

BE PREPARED – Some Seed can be
somewhat difficult to germinate – much patience and time may be required –
please don’t be wondering why the seeds have not germinated after short periods
of time. This is normal. Several months will be needed for some seed.

Some seeds require some experience in growing. We provide
germination guidance and recommend that you do some research before ordering if
you feel unsure. Growing plants from seed is supposed to be fun. Sometimes it
is successful and sometimes not- this is the way it is with gardening. Because
we are not there to plant them, we cannot be responsible for germination
failure due to improper planting or climate conditions. We will always send you
viable seeds

Seed is a live product which depends on many important grower
skills such as proper planting time, seed depth, type of soil, watering, light
intensity, proper use of fertilizers, weed controls, fungicides, insecticides,
soil conditions, and reasonable weather during the growing period. These
factors are totally out of the sellers control, and germination and growing
results are the buyer’s responsibility and risk.
