Marianne - I assume so. The 3 packets I sowed this year got a bit mixed up!!

We used to have self-sown double poppies all over the garden each year, & suddenly there weren't any - so I bought seed.

They are very beautiful Tim !!  I am looking forward to my own seeding this year.  You are right in saying that some years, they do NOT come up  ???  God knows why  ??? 

Happy gardening.  :D

lovely. They look like Opium poppies to me?

I can't get the annuals to grow in my garden. I suppose it's because it's too wet and heavy. My orientals are in bud, though.

Oh, goodie, Aqui!!

Wouldn't argue - I just thought that they looked rather more up-market than the 'opium poppies' that we thought we had.

I have seen several different coloured poppies - but don't recall that shade.
Lovely, isn't it.
