Re: California poppies


Susan and others - I also have trouble getting many varieties of California poppy to germinate.  For 2002, I am determined to "sprinkle them on the snow" in my asparagus bed as I have read one is supposed to do.  But how early?  I have Eschcholia californica and
papaver rhoeas (single and double).  I live NW of Chicago in a 5A zone and would appreciate any advice you-all can offer.
