They were then, and continue to be Wildflowers. The year was 1937. However, today, we think of Poppies as a popular and attractive flower, that is common in home gardens as well as open fields. People like growing poppies for the colorful blooms.\u00a0<\/p><p align=\"Left\">Popular is an understatement, as Poppies come in many, many varieties, and are native to many parts of the world, including Central and Southern Europe, China, India, and other parts of Asia. Its popularity also stems from the diversity of its use. In the garden, Poppies are an attractive, easy-to-grow flower in both annual and perennial varieties. As an added bonus, the home gardener can choose from almost any color in the rainbow, including black. Its flowers are long-lasting.<\/p><p align=\"Left\">Poppy seeds and oil are popular for baking and cooking. If you have excess seeds, you can put them in your backyard bird feeder.<\/p><p align=\"Left\">In the world of medicine, and drugs, some Poppies are a narcotic. It is used to make Codeine, Morphine, and Opium.<\/p><p align=\"Left\"><b>Did you Know?<\/b> After WWII, Poppies became the symbol of both tragedy and renewal of life. They gained this recognition, as there were many poppies in the battlefields of France. Each year on Memorial Day, Veterans sell them as a memorial for those who have given their lives for their country. The proceeds benefit veterans groups.<i><\/i><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-6f2bcbe elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"6f2bcbe\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-5b3ddf8\" data-id=\"5b3ddf8\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f44ed45 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"f44ed45\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Poppy Flowers Plant Specifications<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-0ee6b61 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"0ee6b61\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-b1f3cdd\" data-id=\"b1f3cdd\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a0cab68 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"a0cab68\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p align=\"Left\"><strong>Flower Colors:<\/strong> Common poppy colors include orange, pink, red, yellow, and white.

Regardless of whether you are growing annual or perennial varieties, select a planting site where they can grow for many years. Annual varieties will reseed the planting location. Plant them where they will receive full sunlight for all or most of the day. They will grow well in many types of soils and tolerate dry spells well. Poppies look great when grown en masse.<\/p><p align=\"Left\">During the initial planting, mix in a generous amount of compost into their new home. Then, plant transplants or seed the area.\u00a0 If you seed the area, you will need to thin them after they reach a couple of inches tall. After planting them, water the area.<\/p><p align=\"Left\">The final spacing of plants should be 8&#8243; &#8211; 18&#8243;, depending upon variety. The plants will grow up to 3 feet tall. They tolerate a little crowding.<\/p><p align=\"Left\">Poppies look superb when planted together in big beds. They are excellent wildflowers, filling a field in bright blooms during the summer. The plants grow quickly and will bloom in early to mid-summer. Fertilize them once a month to promote steady growth.<\/p><p align=\"Left\">Water the plants as needed. The goal is evenly moist soil all season long. This is very important during hot, dry periods as the plants need plenty of soil moisture to take up into the plant and blooms.<\/p><p align=\"Left\">Mulching around the plants helps to keep weeds down and makes the bed more attractive.<\/p><p align=\"Left\"><b>Flower Growing Tip:\u00a0<\/b>To prolong blooming, grow smaller groups in succession.<\/p><p align=\"Left\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gardenersnet.com\/atoz\/deadhead.htm\">Deadhead<\/a>\u00a0flowers to prolong blooming.<b><\/b><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-4288125 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"4288125\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-802098c\" data-id=\"802098c\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-86f7c5a elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"86f7c5a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">How to Grow Poppy Flowers in Flowerpots and Containers<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-3b7b148 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"3b7b148\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-40b1927\" data-id=\"40b1927\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0261c36 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"0261c36\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Poppies are ideal candidates to grow in containers, flowerpots, and windowsill planters.
