Poppies are delicate, ephemeral beauties. This seed collection will absolutely astound you - the colors are so magical. From the darkest of burgundy, bordering on black, to a cherry-wine colored dream. This seed mix contains 7 different types of Poppies, and what they all have in common is a desire to be direct-sown into the ground. Poppies do not liked to be transplanted, so just sow your seeds right into your garden or pot, water gently, and wait for the miracle. Bonus: Poppies like poor soil, so this is a beginner-friendly project.

Includes seven types of Poppy seed tubes, individually packed in a little cotton bag

Specific planting instructions are printed on each individual seed tube, but general instructions are below
