 sown as early in the spring as possible right 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 the Shirley Poppies to stand 4 to 6 inches 

 apart to encourage well-branched free-flowering plants.
