Grow a stunning display of vibrant California poppies (Eschscholzia californica) with our premium heirloom, non-GMO, non-hybrid, and open-pollinated seeds!

Each packet contains 400mg of seed, approximately 280 seeds.

• Planting Method: Sow seeds directly outdoors for best results, as California poppies do not transplant well. Ideal for wildflower gardens or adding bursts of color to your yard.
• Planting Season: Direct sow in early spring or late fall. In mild winter climates, sowing in fall allows seeds to germinate early and bloom sooner in spring.
• Planting Depth: Scatter seeds on the surface of the soil and lightly press down to ensure good seed-to-soil contact. Cover very lightly with a thin layer of soil or vermiculite (1/16 to 1/8 inch deep).
• Spacing: Space seeds 4-6 inches apart. For mass plantings, thin seedlings to the same spacing once germinated.
• Days to Germination: 7-14 days, depending on temperature and soil conditions.
• Days to Maturity: 60-75 days for first blooms.
• Sunlight Needs: Thrives in full sun. Choose a spot that receives at least 6-8 hours of sunlight daily.
• Soil Requirements: Prefers well-draining, sandy or loamy soils. Avoid heavy clay or waterlogged areas. Tolerates poor soil conditions but thrives in low-nutrient, well-aerated soil.

• Heirloom Quality: Seeds are selected for their classic beauty and reliable performance.
• Non-GMO & Non-Hybrid: No genetically modified traits or hybrid varieties—just pure, natural seeds.
• Open-Pollinated: Save seeds from year to year with confidence that plants will grow true to type.
