poppies

Hi Group,
I had to reply to the question on the poppies because last year in summer I replied to the poppies auctions and paid $ 8.00 for poppies and got a good size baggy full and not one came up either. It was very dissappointing....I have done better with seed trades or buying them from the store! They are easy from seed...I have planted mine in an area where a fire came through here and they did great...must like the potash! I just sprinkled them in fall and put a tiny bit of soil over them so the birds wouldn't eat them all. Try this and see what happens. I live in North part of calif (and we have all the 4 seasons here)and this seems to work well here. Hope this helps you....I love the poppies too!
Lorna
