Lovely Annual PoppiGS-Papaver 



Annual Poppies should be sown as early in the spring as possible where they are to grow- 

 as they do not stand transplanting. Sow very thinly and barely cover from view. Press 

 down the surface and water. Thin out to stand 3 to 4 inches apart. Make succession 

 sowings a week apart.
