🌸 How to Plant Poppy Seeds for Success! 🌸
Want to grow beautiful poppies in your garden? In this quick video, I’ll show you the best way to plant poppy seeds so they germinate and thrive! Poppies are easy to grow, but they have a few special requirements—like light for germination and well-draining soil.
🌿 Step-by-Step Guide:
✔️ Clear the mulch – Poppy seeds need direct soil contact to germinate.
✔️ Scatter seeds on the surface – Don’t bury them! They need light to sprout.
✔️ Mark the area – I use flag markers so I don’t accidentally cover them with mulch later.
✔️ Mist lightly – Water the area if the ground is dry.
✔️ Be patient – Once temperatures warm, poppies can take 2-4 weeks to germinate.
✔️ Thin seedlings – This improves air circulation and prevents overcrowding.
✔️ Give them full sun – Poppies love bright light and well-draining soil.
✔️ Avoid excess fertilizer – Too much nitrogen leads to more leaves and fewer flowers.
With these simple steps, you’ll have healthy, vibrant poppies blooming in no time!

Wow🎉
Now I know why my poppyseeds didn’t like me. I buried them and didn’t give them any ☀️ 😂
What month is it safe to plant the seeds?
The birds eat my seeds
