    Soft Beauties

    These little numbers are so soft and feminine. The colors are beautiful. Kind remind me of fancy anemones. I winter sowed them in a milk jug. They had great germination. I ended up with a ton of them.

    Hey Cara,

    Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We're thrilled that you love the soft, feminine colors of the Mother of Pearl Poppies - they really are stunning! Your comparison to fancy anemones is spot on. It's wonderful to hear that winter sowing in a milk jug worked so well for you and that you had great germination. Having a ton of these beauties must make for an absolutely gorgeous display! Keep on growing 🌻️
