All The Wild Poppy Seeds Are Growing :)

I gathered loads of poppy seeds from a friends garden a year or two ago and scattered them all over my back garden. Not a single one has come up!! Well done, you - you must have really green fingers :)

sometimes you have to disturb the soil to make them grow thats why so many grow on the edges of fields etc where the plough has been , ....

So iv,e been told :0)

Thanks Gee19 thats what i did, i'll let you know if they come up, well done Jacque.

Im as pleased as Punch 2 that their Growing :) il keep u all up dated on how they do ,I just sowed these thinly on top of the Compost & watered them in & Left outside 2be weathered Amy ? Nothing else :)

well done,you must be very proud..what an achievement

Those look good.
Jacque ~ did you start these off in the greenhouse ?

No just left them outside TT in my Little Nursury Bed behind my Green House :)

Disturbing the soil is so very true. Think world war one, bombs and artillery and the poppie fields in France. This is why we use poppies for rememberance day.

I'm also waiting for my welsh poppies to put in an apperance.

~last year when we came home from the northeast part of the new motorway road system had miles of red poppies growing in the verge~it was so pretty~everything was spruced up and regimented and then there were these wild poppies doing their thing!

I do miss the sight of wild poppies in our fields, will watch with interest,
