Lovely Annual Poppies—Papaver o 
Annual Poppies should be sown as early in the spring as possible where they are to remain as they do not 
stand transplanting. Sow very thinly and barely cover from view. Press down the surface and water. Thin 
out the seedlings to stand 3 to 4inches apart. For a succession of blooms make several sowings a week apart. 
They are showy garden subjects and fine for cutting.
