Single Poppy Seed Mix for Spring | 2000 seeds

• Single Poppy Seed Mix includes annual poppies (Papaver spp.) with delicate, papery flowers in a range of bright and pastel colors, growing 12–30 inches (30–75 cm) tall and blooming from late spring to early summer; they are ideal for borders, wildflower gardens, and mass plantings

• Seeds are best direct sown outdoors in early spring as soon as the soil can be worked, or in fall in mild climates; poppies do not transplant well due to their taproot, so direct sowing is essential

• Prefers light, well-draining soil and performs best in moderately fertile conditions; overly rich soil encourages foliage at the expense of flowers

• To sow, scatter seeds thinly on the soil surface and press lightly into the soil without covering deeply, as light aids germination; thin seedlings to 6–10 inches (15–25 cm) apart

• Requires full sun for best flowering; partial shade will significantly reduce bloom

• Water gently during germination; once established, poppies are drought tolerant and prefer dry to moderately moist soil; overwatering can cause weak growth or root rot

• Seeds typically germinate in 7–14 days at cool temperatures around 55–65°F (13–18°C)

• Fertilizing is generally unnecessary; excess fertilizer results in lush foliage with fewer flowers

• Poppies are largely pest- and disease-free; occasional aphids may appear and can be removed with water spray; poor drainage may lead to root rot

• Allow some flowers to mature and set seed for natural self-seeding, which helps maintain future displays without replanting
