Re: Sprinkling California Poppies in the snow

It works great, and it's the only way I plant poppies now.
Was annoyed one year because my planting plans were hampered by a
3 foot snowfall in April.  Just sprinkled the seeds on top of the snow and
had the best germination!!  Wouldn't plant any other way now.
