These had great germination, but once bloomed they are single petal poppies with ruffled edges. I was so looking forward to double ruffle blooms.

I just want you all to know that after many sad attempts, I've finally cracked the code to growing poppies where you have lots of birds and other wild critters around- stratify for 2 weeks in peat, seed the peat/seed mix on top of soil in a biodegradable pot, and wait for germination. Harden off slightly for 2 weeks, then plop them in the garden! I bought many types of poppies from you this year, and they ALL germinated, and they are ALL going into the garden without me worrying about something eating the seeds, or the temps not being right... and I seeded in the fall so they will be in bloom early spring here in NorCal! The peony poppies are by far my favorite!
