How to Seed Wild Poppy Red (Papaver rhoeas)

1. Sow directly outdoors in spring or autumn — poppies dislike transplanting.

2. Choose light, well-drained soil in full sun.

3. Scatter seeds thinly on the surface and press gently — do not cover deeply.

4. Water lightly to keep soil just moist until germination.

5. Germination takes 10–20 days at 15–20 °C.

6. Thin seedlings to 15–20 cm apart once established.

7. Minimal care needed — poppies thrive in poor soils and reseed naturally.
