A few weeks ago I had a wonderful surprise. I found some of the most beautiful poppies growing and I do not know where they came from. Maybe a present from the birds for feeding them. Does anyone know if it is possible to move the whole plant to another place and if so how and when do I do it. Also my Poppy with the red poppies.

The top ones are Papaver somniferum,hardy annuals. Collect the seed and sow where you want them for next year.
The red one is a bit harder to id as I cannot see the leaves clearly.

Yes you can move the second ones. I am very ruthless with mine and cut them right down to the ground when they have finished flowering as they all fall over and go tatty. They always grow again.
