Poppies have a lot to offer, from different colors and patterns to textures, but possibly the biggest and boldest of all is the seldom seen Peony Poppy! Huge double blooms bear a striking resemblance to their namesake flower, but unlike real peonies, these lovely poppies are annuals, growing quickly and easily from seed.

  • • Beautiful annual with large double blooms
  • • Pollinator attractor with multi-colored Summer blooms
  • • Poppy seeds require a cool period of 2-4 weeks to break dormancy, and some gardeners choose to cold stratify their seeds.

    These didn't look anything like the picture in the ad nor on the seed packet when they bloomed! Just some very ugly singles. It's so discouraging. This was my first seed order from Eden Bros. And also my last.

    These seedlings definitely need some shade. I would think early morning sun, afternoon shade. They are very delicate and can easily dry out and die. I killed all my seedlings in my planters because of too much heat. Luckily I bought a huge bag and can reseed.

    Good germination rate, which is all I can ask of the supplier. Next year, I will correct a couple of things that have, I think, hampered my seedlings' growth: (1) start earlier and thin them out more and (2) provide a place with more shade for them.
