The first fuzzy little poppy heads have started to appear. Honestly I thought they would be further along by now.

This lovely Poppy mural can be viewed in Georgetown, Texas where they have a annual Poppy festival in April. Just reminiscing on how my Nana grew Red Poppies like these by her front door and it was always a joy to see them when they were in bloom. Hoping to have some Poppy blooms this season! • • • #brazosriverblooms #georgetownpoppyfestival #growingpoppies

Want Poppies? Time to start sowing. All the seeds of the true poppy species we sell at Marders (but not California poppies — those aren’t real poppies) need cold stratification to germinate. So it’s time to sow them NOW. Pick a spot in full sun w/ good drainage & weed/rake the soil until it’s a level, clean, bare spot. These seeds are going to sit on the surface of the soil so you’ll need to rake the surface to create a texture that’ll prevent seed from being washed away by rain, but not make it too deep as poppy need light to germinate. Poppy seeds are ridiculously minuscule — be extra careful when sowing or you’ll end up with clumps. Some folks mix the seeds with sand to give them more volume when they toss. I pour mine into a ramekin & sow by pinching a few between with my thumb & forefinger in tiny amounts (as if I was adding a spice to a recipe) then sprinkle them. I start in December, sowing in batches, until a month before our last frost (normally around Mother’s Day) — any later & I’ll have to refrigerate them first. It’ll take a while for seedlings to emerge but luckily, the blue tinge of their foliage helps determine what’s a poppy seeding & what’s a weed. You may need to thin (although with my method I don’t) to allow each plant room to grow. Poppies resent being transplanted but I’ve gotten away with it by digging up a big chunk of dirt while they’re still fairly young & they didn’t seem to notice. Once you have poppies in the garden you won’t need to buy them anymore as they’ll self seed like crazy but if I’m adding a new cultivar I tend to buy 3-4 packets because of my batches & because how can anyone have too many poppies? #poppyseed #cornpoppy #shirleypoppy #breadseedpoppy #papaver #poppy #poppies #papaversomniferum #papaverrhoeas #papavers #sowingseeds #gardentips #gardeningtips #gardenerslife #gardenlife #gardenersworld #wintersowing #startingseeds #growingpoppies #coldhardyannuals #startingseeds #seedstratification # stratification #sowingcoldhardyannuals #onlyatmarders #seedsowing #seedlove #seedstarting #papavercommutatum #growyourownflowers #seedstartingtips

Gordon the Garden Pea amongst one of our many favourite Spring flowers, the Poppies. Beautiful as a flower and also amazing when used as a seed head in arrangements. Poppies are a symbol of remembrance and hope, it’s important to be reminded of the value of peace and love.

Our shop vase is filled with our dry Poppy seed heads. All seeds have been removed and stored away to be planted next season. The dry Poppy heads mark the end of the Poppy season but also provides us with beautiful seeds that mark the beginning of the next Poppy growing season. It’s a beautiful cycle. #poppies #driedpoppypods #driedpoppies #driedpoppyheads #poppyseeds #growingpoppies #dryingpoppies #foreverpoppies #cutflowers #spring #springblooms #springpoppies #springpoppy

These poppies are popping! . I was super lucky to have a special garden helper visit me back in May. . This kiddo has spent many days in the garden with me in the past and I sure do miss her help harvesting ground cherries. . When we were lucky enough to have @rolling.home.adventures visit us in May, we of course had to take them to visit @froghollowfarmww . . While we were there my gardening partner picked out these poppy seeds. . I love poppies but have struggled in the past to get them to start from seed. I loved this seed selection that my garden partner picked out but to be honest, I was worried if I was going to get them to grow. . After their visit was over and they headed East, I kept watching these seeds, eager to send updates to my garden helper. . Well today was the day, these blooms are in full force and soo beautiful! . @cjomonty please pass along a big thank you to my garden partner! Excellent seed choice and fantastic seed sowing skills ❤️. . #growingpoppies #gardenhelper #kidsinthegarden #growflowers #growingfromseed #poppyflower #garden #letthembloom #growingallthethings #kidscangarden #gardeningkids #letthembelittle #getoutside #sunshinefuntime #august2023 #summertimefun☀️

Harvesting our Poppy seeds 🌸 Something we always love to do. It really is amazing how many seeds are inside these pods! I will be like the flower fairy next year sprinkling these everywhere I can 😊 I think the pods are just so beautiful. I work with children so these can be used on our nature table plus they always love to use them in their play. #thisisplot53 #thisismyhappyplace #sustainablegardening #sthelensallotments #growinghappiness #growingpoppies #poppiesofinstagram #flowersaremything #flowersmakemehappy #helpingnature #helpingthebees #helpingpollinators #natureforwellbeing #naturelover #happyinnature

I was out walking the dog and spotted this gorgeous giant poppy. I noticed that there were seed pods on it, so I took one. Now the question is, how do I deal with this so I can grow my own? Do I let it dry out on its own? Do I open it up and take the seeds out and dry them? Do I just stick the whole thing in the ground? 😅 Any hits or tips welcome 🫶🏼 🌱 🌱 🌱 🌱 #poppies #poppyseeds #growingpoppies #flowers #gardeningtips #gardening #gardener #growingflowers #gardeninghelp #growinghelp #garden #growing #instagarden

I've coveted other garden's growing and blooming poppies. For some reason, I can not grow them. I'm still trying SO, I was able to take some from my mom's patch AND I was blessed this morning with my first gorgeous bloom! So unexpected for I just planted the score of them yesterday! It looked like it needed more time, but HELLO BABY! Needless to say. I'm thrilled 😃🌸🌞 #growingpoppies #poppyflowers #poppyflower #zone7agarden #7azone #zone7agardening #gardening7a #gardening2023 #meinblumengarten #meingarten

Popping Poppys!

6/6/2023, 5:33:45 PM

It's poppy season, and I am more excited about this flower every year. The only ones left to bloom are the gigantic breadseed poppies! . My biggest piece of advice for growing poppies is to plant them in the fall and keep cutting them to keep them in bloom for more than just a week or two! At the end of the summer, leave a few to go to seed, or collect the seeds and sew in the late summer/early fall. . #poppyfarm #growingpoppies #flowerboutique #frontporchjxn #jacksonmichiganflorist #heirloompoppies #pandorapoppies #shirleypoppies #orientalpoppies

Aren’t these Iceland poppies so fun? This is my third year growing them and I finally have success. (Minus the thrips). Keys to success for me: -grown under cover (high tunnel) -transplanted much earlier (March) -ordered from plugs (@farmerbaileyplugs ) : For extended storage and vase life I sear the ends to lock in the sap using a propane torch. 🔥 you also want to harvest them in cracking bud stage, that also helps to give the best vase life. : #icelandpoppy #icelandpoppies #colibri #hummingbirdpoppies #poppy #poppies #growingpoppies #poppyflower #ironmeadowsflowerfarm

Poppies, fabulous poppies. One of our favorite flowers for design work. These Icelandic poppies (Papaver nudicale) are our favorite of the poppies to grow. A few of the varieties we like are ‘champagne bubbles’, ‘pastel meadows (floret), and Colibri or Hummingbird types. We usually plant two rounds- one fall planted and one late winter planted. They look fragile but actually hold up quite well. We typically harvest them in cracked bud stage, dry store them in bags in the cooler and then hydrate them and use them as needed. #growingpoppies #growingicelandicpoppies

Today is California Poppy Day! California Poppies are the official state flower of California and to celebrate Senate Bill 944 was passed to recognize April 6th as an official celebration day of the flower. Schools are encouraged to educate students on the flower, their importance to the California economy, and the preservation of these majestic beauties that thrive on many California hillsides. #bluepumpkinseedco #bluepumpkinseeds #californiapoppyday #californiapoppyseeds #californiapoppies #goldenpoppies #orangepoppies #growingpoppies #california #californiapoppy #california #poppy #flowers #californiapoppies #poppies #flower #nature #californialove #californiadreaming #eschscholziacalifornica #californiaadventure #californialiving #californiadreamin #californianas #californiacaptures #californiadreams #californiagrown #poppyflower #flowersofinstagram

❤️ Poppy update: ➡️ The ones that survived my initial killing are progressing well. <1st pic> ➡️ The seeds that I had as backup in the fridge were replanted and are progressing as well. They are smaller (obv), but they will catch up. <2nd pic> I didn't have any more Giant Rattle poppy, so that one is a bust. But, I do have Crimson Feathers, Scarlet, Sissinghurst White, Hens and Chicks, Falling In Love, Cream Peony, Amazing Grey, and Rose Feathers. As long as I don't forget to water them again. LOL 💧💧 MORAL OF THE STORY: Have backup if you are unsure about how a seed will do under your care. 😂 ❓️DO YOU KEEP A BACKUP❓️ <<#poppies #seedstation #grownfromseed #flowerstagram #growingpoppies #flowergarden #commonpoppy #breadseedpoppy #flanderspoppy #featherypoppy

No. 4 • California Poppy - Classic Orange Variety • My family grew these from throwing out seed.. I’ve personally had better luck with transplanting this variety to get it established somewhere • They self seed generously every year, so they tend to stick around after established • Short vase life, but still can be used as a cut flower for certain things(?) • • #californiapoppy #poppy #orangepoppy #gardenplanning #seedstarting #gardenflowers #gardentips #gardennotes #gardenjournal #cutflowergarden #futureflowerfarmer #familygarden #growingflowers #flowerlovers #floweraddict #growingpoppies #babyspoppies #dowhatworksforyou

What’s this? Thousands upon thousands of poppy seeds sprinkling around the garden on a cold and overcast day ☁️ These tiny seeds have been hanging out in the fridge over winter to make sure their cold stratification has been successful (sometimes it doesn’t get cold enough in Sydney). I’m so glad I fridged them too, because with all this rain they all would have washed away ☔️ I’ve planted; Oriental Black and White Oriental Mix (pinks, salmon, peach, coral) Oriental Scarlet and reds Oriental Royal Wedding Oriental Victoria Louise Oriental Giant Hungarian Peony Poppy Mix (mauve and pinks) Peony Poppy Double Mix (pinks) Peony Poppy Double Black I don’t always have much success with poppy seed germination and so I’ll be watching the ground with eager eyes to see which ones will germinate successfully. Hopefully my own little field of colour to complete my poppy dreams 🌈 🤩 Are you a poppy fan? 🙋🏻‍♀️

I finally grew a poppy flower from seed which for me is a first…there are a couple of poppies in the ground that I also grew from seed although they did not produce as lovely of a flower as this one, I will keep planting poppy seeds and I hope they begin to thrive #poppies #growingpoppies #gardening #midwestgardening #flowergardening #gardener

Because angels exists ✨ Either the fairies knew that I needed a white poppy in my life, or my angels wanted to send me a message of support…maybe both, but there it blooms, among my other pink and grey pandora poppies that I seeded. I did not knowingly seed white pandora poppies, but I guess this happens sometimes. Angelic is the only description that comes to mind…and I’m feeling the love and light today. 💕✨ #poppy #poppies #growingpoppies #growingflowers #flowergarden #whitepoppy #flowergarden #flowergardening #creatingsanctuary #gardenlove #gardenblooms #gardenblessings

While we are on the poppy theme, here is one that is an absolute eye-catcher even for the people who are not into gardening at all. Ta-da! Himalayan blue poppy! . Without filters or Photoshop, its petals look pure sky blue. . It needs quite different growing conditions compared to the regular poppies: I keep it in the shade, water it regularly, and it also prefers higher humidity. . . . . . . . #bluepoppy #meconopsis #hamburg #summervibes #poppylove #crazyaboutpoppies #allotmentinhamburg #kleingartenliebe #kleingarten #poppymadness #summerinitsprime #juneonmyplot #growingpoppies #allotmenteering #cutflowerallotment #growingcutflowers #kleingartenliebe #allotmentlife #flowergrowing #parzelleinhamburg

Stories in the Stems Meaning*: Memory, continuance, sacrifice, revelations. You are always in my memory. These are a perfect flower to let someone know you have found memories of them. Poppies begin to show their colors in April and can last through June depending on heat and humidity. We are growing two eye catching varieties on the farm; Icelandic (Papaver nudicaule) and Shirley (Papaver rhoeas). These are a “cut and come again” flower. There are features I love about growing and harvesting poppies and elements that need more love. Will they remain on our Petals Listing? Check out my blog about learning and growing poppies!

This is Gramma, one of my very best friends & absolute inspirations. I often say how she seems in better shape than I ever could be. 😂 She has been gardening for many years. She even had a huge azalea garden, mostly grown from stem propagation in the creek behind their cottage. (More on that paradisiac cottage later, with photos!) It’s her & my other grandmother who have helped shaped me into who I am today, my love for the earth & creation. It’s from her mother-in-law, my great-grandmother, that my “Tiger Eyes” marigolds from my shop came from. 🌼 Here, she’s showing off her latest garden accomplishment: growing poppies for the first time, Hungarian breadseed poppies, that is. The seeds came all the way from CA from a fellow, generous gardener, Jenny from @the_happy_herban. 🌞 I had to document just how tall these beauties got! 😲 And, the color is just gorgeous. I’ll definitely be growing these next year. I’ve yet to have success with poppies myself, but I keep trying. How can I not with that color?! Leave it up to Gramma to be able to grow just about anything! I know that I am blessed to still have Gramma in my life, BOTH of my grandmothers, both flower/plant-lovers. 🌿 Who is your inspiration? ——————————————- #theoilygardener #cottagegarden #thehappygardeninglife #cottageinspiration #pollinatorgarden #thehealinggarden #myherbalstudies #heirloomgardening #heirloomgarden #zone7 #zone7b #shegrows #greenvillesc #spartanburgsc #scgarden #poppies #hungarianbreadseedpoppies #growingpoppies
