Description

Seed-grown Corn Poppy (Papaver rhoeas) fits naturally into naturalized plantings. This annual garden plant needs full sun, moderately fertile, well-drained soil, and steady early care while seedlings establish.

Use loose, prepared soil for sowing and keep the seed-starting environment within the recommended germination range. Keep the soil evenly moist, and remove spent flowers as needed to keep the planting tidy.
