Showy Poppies 
Annual Poppies 
Poppies while considered “Ole 
Fashioned’' flowers are nevertheless 
very showy and make a gorgeous 
bed. Sow seeds where plants are 
to remain as they do not transplant 
well. They seed themselves from 
vear to year. Give plants at least 
6 inches of room. Poppies make 
handsome bouquets, although they 
do not last well.
