California Poppy

☀️ Radiant & Resilient

California Poppies are beloved for their silky, cup-shaped petals and vibrant, sun-drenched colours. These cheerful annuals are remarkably tough, thriving in dry, poor soil where other flowers struggle, making them a perfect, low-maintenance choice for brightening up borders or naturalized garden areas.

  • Growing: Thrives in full sun and thrives in sandy, well-draining soil. Highly drought-tolerant once established.

  • Sowing: Direct sow in early spring or autumn. These plants have a deep taproot and dislike being transplanted, so sow directly into their final location.

  • Care: Very low maintenance. Avoid over-watering or over-fertilizing, as they perform best in lean conditions.

  • Blooming: Produces a steady display of bright, luminous flowers from early summer well into the autumn.
