How to Grow California Poppy SeedsSowing: To plant California Poppy seeds, sow them in early spring by placing the seeds 1/4" below the soil surface. Keep the soil lightly moist to encourage germination, which typically occurs within 2-3 weeks when soil temperatures are between 60-65°F. If you’re in USDA Zones 7 or warmer, consider fall planting for best results. Remember, California poppies don’t transplant well, so if you start them indoors, make sure to plant them outside while they're still very small to avoid disrupting their growth. Growing: Once your California Poppy seedlings have established, water them occasionally. As the plants mature, reduce watering since poppies are drought-tolerant and thrive even with minimal moisture, especially in periods of extreme dryness. They adapt to most well-drained soils and even seaside conditions, preferring poor soil for the best blooming. Pinch off faded flowers to encourage more blooms. These resilient annuals prefer cooler temperatures, typically blooming in spring and early summer before going dormant in the heat. Though an annual, they readily reseed, ensuring a beautiful display year after year. Plus, they’re a magnet for bees and butterflies, adding life to your garden.
