Poppy seeds — from field poppies to Oriental giants

Few flowers are as instantly loved as the poppy — tissue-paper blooms on slender stems, from scarlet field and Shirley poppies to frilly peony types and the bold perennial Oriental poppy. They run right through our flower seed range and our wildflowers, with the classic field poppy gathered under Papaver rhoeas. New to flowers? Our flower growing guide gets you started.

Most poppies are sown straight where they are to flower — the calendar shows the timing.

Types of poppy to grow

Annual field and Shirley poppies are the easiest, scattered for a meadow effect; Iceland poppies bring pastel colours for cutting; and the perennial Oriental poppy makes a dramatic early-summer clump. Many self-seed freely and all are superb for pollinators, with the ornamental seed heads a bonus for drying.

Growing poppies from seed

Poppies resent root disturbance, so sow direct onto raked soil in autumn or spring and barely cover the fine seed. Give them full sun and free-draining ground, thin the seedlings, and leave a few heads to self-seed for next year. The flowers are fleeting but follow in waves.

Poppies are wildflower-meadow stars — here's where to take it next.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of poppy can I grow?
Annual field and Shirley poppies, pastel Iceland poppies for cutting, and the bold perennial Oriental poppy, among others.

When do I sow poppies?
Sow direct in autumn or spring — they dislike being transplanted.

Are poppies good for pollinators?
Yes — bees love them, and the seed heads dry well too.

Do poppies come back each year?
Annual types self-seed freely; the Oriental poppy is a true perennial.

Why sow them where they are to flower?
Poppies resent root disturbance, so scatter the seed onto raked soil rather than transplanting.
