  • Right on schedule, the poppies are germinating! Direct seeded in late November, everything is growing well and getting established for the winter.
    It’s not too late to sow! Here is a great seed source www.botanicali...

    I have struggled with bread seed poppies in zone 5, but this inspired me to buy more seeds and keep trying. I would take all of you pathway volunteers over my tribulus terrestris.

      @@hassanghumman8269 I was able to get some going by direct sowing, but they struggled and that was my fault. I failed to provide them with rich enough soil and enough water as larger trees on my property soak up all the water.. I've been trying to revive my yard after previous owners sprayed everything with chemicals and never added organic matter to the soil for ten plus years.

    I have sown poppies and am checking on the seedlings every few days too. The seedlings are soooo tiny! I can't wait till spring to see them mature.

    LOVE your enthusiasm for poppies! Because of you I decided here in 8b Pacific Northwest to seed some more poppies. My first planting in September did come up and are doing fine but I wanted more. So we shall see --its been 2 weeks--am not seeing them yet but not too worried. We here have much cooler nights and more rain likely than you so maybe the germination will be a bit slower. Great video and I cannot WAIT to see poppies in spring!

    We enjoy watching your You Tube videos! I just want to let you know by watching your You Tube video on sowing poppies I got inspired in planting a small area in my woodland garden where I have some direct sun shine. I seeded the poppies on Saturday after Thanksgiving and they are germinating as of today. They look wonderful !

    I just sowed poppy seeds and other cool season annuals about a week ago here in 6a. Also cut back annual pots and sprinkled seeds on top. I’m visiting family next month and going to try and sow some for them as well. I can’t wait to see them in spring! They’re the easiest and most impressive sight 🤩

    • @BrieThePlantLady

      I would keep them in the open but you may want to try both approaches and see. Just know it’s way too early to sow these. You need to wait until the soil gets cool

    • @BrieThePlantLady
      @BrieThePlantLady  12 дней назад

      Because zones are meaning LESS and LESS with climate changes. Temperature fluctuations influence more than 30 year average lows. I live in central NC, so the southeast climate. That means more than a zone.

    Hi, Brie. I have an oddball question for you...
    About 40 years ago my Mother-in-Law gave me some poppy pods that her husband (my Father-in-Law) brought back from the war in the Pacific. They have been growing them in a bed in front of their house ever since so they're kind of an heirloom/family tradition.
    My question for you is: After sitting in their pods for 40 years what would you say are the odds of them germinating? Do you know of any applicable tips/tricks for increasing the odds? I'm in Zone 8-9 (South Florida) and only have 2 pods (but they're loaded with seeds) and I don't want to waste them. Thanks.
    Just sane... :^) Saint

    • @BrieThePlantLady
      @BrieThePlantLady  Год назад +1

      It’s a long shot that they would germinate but it’s worth a try. Maybe sow a few in December in a pot and if they germinate you could sow more? Def do not sow them now, it’s way too hot!

  • @Gardensiren24
    @Gardensiren24 Год назад

    My oak tree still has green leaves on it it almost thanksgiving Soo I already sowed but did put a white cover bc the leaves won't fall until like Feb at this point the acorns are barely starting to fall. So is it ok to cover I'm not sure if will be bad for. But does get cold around Feb -March. Zone 8b Dallas, Texas. My poppies look just like yours now. I'm so like wondering how do they survive the freezes in January?? So crazy sometimes freezes in March/April lately past couple years...

    • @BrieThePlantLady
      @BrieThePlantLady  Год назад

      If you don’t get good germination from this round wait and resow when you get cooler weather/ after the leaves fall. It’s tricky in Warmer climates where the timing is strange.

    Do you have a care guide for matsubara red prunus? It blooms at different times of the year and I can’t find any helpful information on them. Im not sure when it goes dormant or when I should prune. Do you have any advice? Should I leave it outside forever or should I bring it inside certain times of the year?

    • @BrieThePlantLady
      @BrieThePlantLady  2 года назад

      Never bring it inside! It needs to stay outside. Prunus mume are tough and bloom in winter naturally. Prune in June-august to reduce succeeding at cuts. Just treat it like a cherry. Plant it outside and leave it alone.
