Elaine, thanks for the info. This year I sowed annual papaver somniferum (breadseed) poppy seeds directly in the garden. In the past, I have also grown Shirley poppies and California poppies ... but in pots. I started them a bit later though.
Daisy, I love California poppies, but they don't reseed here ...winters are too cold. I have to remember to try Icelandic poppies. They would probably do very well.
