Autumn sowings will flower in late spring. Choose a position in full sun on any poor, well-drained soil which has been raked to a fine tilth. Sow seeds thinly, at a depth of 1cm (1/2") in drills spaced 15cm (6") apart and cover seed with its own depth of soil to exclude light. Water the ground regularly, especially during dry periods. Germination usually takes 14-21 days. When seedlings are large enough to handle, thin them out to 15cm (6") apart. Alternatively, sow California poppies indoors from February to March at a temperature of 15-21C (60-70F). When seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant and grow them on in cooler conditions until large enough to plant outdoors.Product Specifications: Hardy AnnualPosition: Full sunHeight: Up to 30cm (12in)Spread: Up to 25cm (10in)Supplied as Californian Poppy ‘Rose Chifon’ (Eschscholzia Californica) 1 packet (100 seeds)Images shown are for guidance only of the expected results from plants upon maturity.
