California Poppy seeds

Approx. 35 seeds. Eschscholzia californica

Is toxic to pets. Can be toxic to some people.

This cheerful orange flower is a bee magnet! An annual that self-sows from year to year - so no need to replant once established. Seeds need light to germinate. Will grow in poor soil. Prefers well-drained soil. Will not grow in heavy, clay soil. Drought-resistant once established  

They don’t transplant well, so best to direct sow in the garden in early spring. Cover with a light sprinkling of sand, perlite, or vermiculite for best results. Prefers full sun, but will tolerate light shade. Blooms from spring to autumn. Deadhead for more blooms, or leave blooms on to set seeds for next season. Will self-seed.
