CuLture. Poppies are best planted during their dormant season 
or early fall growth, which is from August lst to October. Choose 
strong Field Grown stock, not pot grown varieties. Plant crowns 
2 in. deep in good garden loam, be sure that the ground does not 
settle and leave a hollow over the crown in which water may stand 
during the winter. After first real freeze give green leaves a light 
mulch of excelsior or marsh hay.
