Poppies, the world's favorite wildflower and perennial glamour in the garden. There's no flower gardener who doesn't want the beauty of these fabulous flowers in their garden and they're remarkably easy to grow.
First, you need to know there are both annuals and perennials in this group. Annuals first, it's a deep red annual that's the most popular flower in the world since it's the one that goes by the common names of Flanders Poppy and the American Legion Poppy. It has those names because of World War One.
This famous wildflower is one of the easiest in the world to grow and you'll love it like everyone else does. The seed is tiny, and it prefers alkaline, not acid soils. That's the only requirement. Be sure your soil is not heavily acid and you'll have a flood of red poppies in early summer if you plant them in fall or spring.
If you do have heavily acid soil, add a little lime first, then simply scatter the seeds on the surface, and then press them in for good seed to soil contact. Don't cover them and then water.
If you want to make this your year of the poppy, choose Poppy Power, our exclusive seed mixture of eight different poppies, including the perennial Oriental poppy. It's one of our most popular mixes and you can plant just a patch or a whole border since you can buy our seeds in any quantity from a packet to a pound. I'm Eric Allen for edenbrothers.com, the seediest place on Earth.

My oriental poppies are volunteers year-over-year. They root in the denuded soil beneath landscaping stones/rocks under the house eve. I have harvested the pods, captured the hundreds of thousands seeds and wintered them over in my shop to later be broadcast or gifted. Seeds that are swept away from the pods with the wind grow (not well) in the gravel driveway. Still, the small emaciated pods are a source of seeds to be harvested. These flowers are a delight to the eye.
Finally! Someone that tells you the proper Ph level in the soil. Thanks a million!
What is the proper ph for seeds to germinate and what moisture level plus temperature for somniferum seeds.
I meant for papaver somniferum.
@@jjames9429did you ever find an answer to your phone soil question?
I’ve got about 30 federally endangered poppies growing in my yard. The prickly one with white flower with yellow middle. Very beautiful and am taking good care of them in hopes of helping them spread to a bigger population of them.
@Phallus Maximus where do you find plentiful seeeds..
@Phallus Maximus thanks af do you know which poppy would produce codeine if soaked pods
@Phallus Maximus I just ordered these i have some growing but idk what to do really there not blasting off like I wish but are still alive there just kinda doing nothing what should i do to encourage growth?
@Phallus Maximus don't get mad it happens I manifest good on your crops mine are ok but not big I'll make a video to show you
where did you find the white and yellow one
Thank you for your hard work and education toward teaching fun entertainment toward the art of growing and the other breakdowns about the history of the poppy. Well done. Subscribed!
You sometimes still find fields full of these flanders poppies in the Flanders. They really make the field beautifull to see.
The red poppy is also used on Remembrance Day in Australia, on November,11th. I have also seen them for Anzac Day, April 25th (which is our special day to celebrate the Australian and New Zealand Alliance in WW1)
Also used for improvised morphine
“Whats Poppin’” collection lmfaoo good name!
Thanks
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses; row on row,
That mark our place: and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie,
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields. -- by John McCrae (1872-1918)
a reminder lest we forget...
Poppies are so beautiful flowers . I am going to plant them in my garden. Thank you for this great information .
Easy to grow and beautifully rich colours 👍
Gorgeous flowers
And don't forget ANZAC Day 25th April in Australia and New Zealand 'lest we forget'.
Wow fascinating story about the American Legion poppies I never knew that. No I would like to grow them in remembrance and I will know why thank you
We people in Wales, Scotland and Ireland also wear poppies during remembrance.....
Thanks for all of the information. I was wondering if perennial poppies also require alkaline soil. Unfortunately my soil is highly acidic, and I hardly see any poppies grown in my area of the country.
Very nice Information bud
Thank you
Wow Wow 🌹🌹
I bought mine in plant form in a nursery, but the plant tends to flop over when the flowers comes up because they are heavy. How can I keep them up right? Thanks
opugilist thanks! Yeah I’ll leave them alone since the plant seems to be healthy and producing a lot of flowers...
The most difficult seed to germinate here in SW colorado....temperature is in the 60s to low 80s and they never germinate outside. The nights are 45ish. Kept wet and out of 5000 seeds, 2 germinated. I think they were weeds. VERY hard to get going. Thied 6 times and never succeded. Must be someting Im doing wrong.
Someone here in the comments said some varieties need cold stratification before sprouting. (Basically imitating winter by sticking the seeds in the freezer before trying to sprout them) maybe that might do the trick? Good luck
Spoon plant by the way. Am I right?
The poppies I'm interested in are the opium ones. I need pain killers! At one time I could get codeine for my pain but not now instead I can accept Euthanasia to end my suffering! Strange fucked up world!
As a mind mentalism nutrition liked life enhancing is a right reason
I placed my seeds into the leaf mulch dirt about June when it began to get arid & hot out. Was that a mistake? Should I have gotten them into the ground sooner when it was cooler & wetter?
Yes
I was going to sow some seeds today, after looking it up i changed my mind, did cosmos instead
Iv been trying to grow Shirley poppies in memory of my mother in law. They were her favorite flowers. Unfortunately, They never grow. I get lots of weeds and I spray for weeds after pulling them and I never get flowers. So. I buy silk ones for her grave.
Good video but should be renamed to information on poppies no growing tips
You mentioned everything except a Champaign Bubbles poppy mix. Please add this to your list or give explanation of how to grow.
I agree with
Couse I need it
Can you use them for cut bouquets
Thanks
They're not good bouquet plants most poppies once cut wont even last even 24 hours before completely wilting.
@@Toadmanstaff thanks
Australia and New zealand also fought in those wars
whats wrong with your last name buddy
I have some Hungarian poppy seeds is it to late to plant them im in the south east in the Carolinas ?????? thank you .
I sowed these in a spot that gets 6 hours of sun in early March and they just bloomed, near Charlotte. you should probably wait until fall now. They need cold weather to sprout, so november through february for us.
@@dustinlovell8593 thanks dustin will do !
When is good time to grow Poppies? Thanks 🙏
Eric Ferguson 🙏
Here in So. Cal. (zone 10), they're just finishing up now (late May). Plant in late fall to early winter.
We're just starting to collect seed now. Lots of seed pods, but waiting for them to turn from green to brown.
I try again, I plant about 4 week ago nothing for first time
May/24/20
Where can I get poppy seeds
Can I dig up a poppy from the ground?
I live in SoCal and was wondering if I could dig up the flower from the root and stick it in my garden?
I just did...I am trying to move 10 a day to transplant....they have DEEP roots ...go slow and take your time...they probably won't bloom this year, but hopefully they come back...
@@capt.jeffzavatsky2838 where did you get your seeds I cant find bulk seeds to plant looking for red poppy
@@joshuacalebbevington i ordered online... plus I grabbed some off my plants...Will plant this spring 2020
mike hunt idk if this counts as bulk but I got 50k seeds from amazon and they seem to be doing well so far
Are dirt okay
How
now these seeds aren't coated with any emetics or pesticides right?
Does this guy ever answer back? Anyways, does anyone know how to use citric acid for soil pH balance? It says on package but doesn't say how to use it or how much.
I dropped my apple in James bottle of jack daniels
after frost? the seeds of somniferum at least require a period of cold stratification otherwise they wont germinate. this guy doesnt seem to know his gardening tips very well....
the other problem i see here and again it may be different for the oriental variety and such but with somniferum you can almost never transplant them sucesfully or without major stunting issues. this is a very poorly informed video on the subject... seems more of a buisness advert than actual helpful tips....
Not from the area but yes we spread our seeds before frosts... I’m sure this helps germination! Although people could keep the seeds in the fridge for a while before sowing. I’ve also found some are more wind tolerant than others and some will reflower a second time if you deadhead the flowers. Oh and be careful what you wish for because they will self seed throughout the garden! So if you’ve got a certain colour scheme stick with your colour tones as they will cross pollinate between some of the colours so you can end up with all sorts! The war kicked up a lot of soil and dormant seeds so there was a massive flush of poppies afterwards just like if you turn the soil in your garden old buried weed seeds etc will sprout... amazing how long some seeds can stay viable. I sprinkle seed in Autumn or our early winter straight on top of the mulch and most germinate just fine! I did like this video I think further information would be on their website maybe although every zone will be different. Here they seem to do well in low fertile areas too and I’ve seed then self seed into concrete pathways.
@@alliecatnz where do you find your seeds though I've been buying these little packets is there a good source for bulk I think I finally learned how to grow these cant wait to see them
mike hunt I only buy from local seed growers mainly or our local wildflower website or our countries eBay equivalent off of lots of elderly people 😂 (they seem to have lovely varieties). Just do a search for your local seed suppliers. We’re not allowed to import many seeds into our country very strict biosecurity here so it’s hit and miss with international suppliers... our bees go crazy for poppies!!!
ถอนราก
Do you ship seeds in the philippines?
Have you found a source I'm surprised your getting them there

@@fridgemagnet9831 our place in the Philippines are cold we are in the mountain province... Do you ship seeds?
