Thanks for showing us how to do this. I love poppies and as you said, the bees love them. I've lost a few over the years but now that I've found the right spot, they come back year after year.

[@cottoverdi]

Hi Wendy, Yes, mine were definitely in the wrong spot!

[@Elle.Smith.]

Thank you for sharing this, I had no idea that I could propagate poppies. Will definitely try this now. 😊

[@cottoverdi]

Brilliant - so happy you found it useful 😁

[@richbishop7896]

I love and grow Oriental poppies. I've grown Royal Wedding for years. Have you ever tried growing them from their seeds? Bonny

[@cottoverdi]

Hi Bonny, I have grown poppies from seed - they are super easy but don't like being transplanted so it's best to sow directly - however I've not done that yet because of the cats - they'd love a bare patch of earth to dig in 🤪

[@AceMaverickM]

@@cottoverdi how do i collect the seed from this poppy. I found a patch and fell in love, so I’d love to know how and when to collect the seeds
