California Poppy Seeds annual
Eschscholzia californica
Considered an annual that acts like a
perennial, the California poppy will readily
re-seed itself, year after year, in almost all climates.
Extremely drought tolerant and easy to grow. Each plant will branch into many stems, each with a single,
four-pedaled yellow or orange bloom about 2 inches wide.
Prefers full sun in light to sandy soils. An excellent color accent to any wildflower planting. Blooms close each night at sunset or on dull days. The finely divided foliage is bluish-green in color making identification
easy prior to flowering.
Mix with sand and toss the seed/sand mix on the
cultivated bed you're going to use. Cover with
¼" of soil
or simply water with a medium spray
as wet soil will cover most of the seeds.
Germinates in
2-3 weeks. Thin to 4" apart when plants are 2" tall.
Packet contains ¼ teaspoon California Poppy
Seeds.
