Can I ask roughly where you live and what you do for them? I live in CO, and I put out about 20 packets worth of seeds on my hellstrip and retaining wall and absolutely 0 came up. Honestly I’m a little disappointed. Full sun, bare soil, scattered per instructions and watered.

I live in MI and direct seed these guy last year, took them awhile to start but once they bloom they continue till almost everything already die to the ground and still blooming, they just so resilient and beautiful. I re-mulch my yard this year so the seed in the ground probably won’t make it but I have some start indoor and almost ready to bring outside.

My California poppies were even better the second year but I think my lupines boxed them out this year sadly. Going to have to seed again

I live in California’s Central Coast area and we love our state flower! The recommended practice here is to scatter your seeds in early fall for blooms the next spring. Their natural reseeding is fun because you never know where the wind has blown. Sometimes you get a nice pop of orange in an an unexpected place

Timely post! For days I have been trying to figure out what these new leaves were in my wildflower starting pots. I knew they were familar but I couldnt place them. Now I know.

I love how natural it looks. I hate overly manicured gardens with individual plants just separted by a bunch of mulch. It’s so strange and unnatural, but people are used to it, I guess.

What a lovely yard!

i do that too, the trick is not to pull them out of the ground when they finish blooming but to cut them and leave the roots. they come back bigger every year.
