For Growing Poppies Successfully 
Buy Only Strong Field-Grown Plants That Have Been Grown From Root 
Divisions Of The Original Plants 
We strongly urge never to purchase any seedlings as you will never receive the 
same quality and they will be rather a sad disappointment. Our stock is all of authentic 
Hybrid varieties grown from original plants that will bloom profusely. 
Always plant Poppies in midsummer during normal rest periods. Poppies are 
handled very successfully if planted any time from July to the end of September, even 
through October if necessary. These plants will flower the following spring. 
Plant Poppies in well-drained soil. Always plant in one of the higher spots in 
your garden. 
Poppies will do well in any soil or location. Lime or acid soil is equally suited. 
Fertilizer is unnecessary unless soil is too poor to grow weeds. Roots of Poppies grow 
straight down to a depth of two to three feet and find nourishment where none would 
seem to exist. 
Planting Poppies: spade your soil twelve inches deep. If heavy soil add gravel, 
ashes or sand so that it is porous. Then dig a hole, place your plant straight down so 
that the top of the plant is but two inches under the ground. Water thoroughly after 
planting, continue to do so if very dry. These plants will grow some green leaves 
through the fall. When the ground is frozen cover lightly with salt hay or straw. In the 
spring, rake off hay, cultivate soil freely. Poppies are very easily grown, need very 
little attention and will give permanent charm to your garden.
