My annual bedding plants are all in their own pots now. Dozens of them which will have to be going out for hardening off soon surely. The place looks a mess. they're all over. Things should start to warm up soon or we will be unable to move around.

I have a pot of little seedlings and I just cannot remember what they are - they're probably seeds I collected from flowers last year! They're big enough to prick out individually and I must do that. Do wish it would warm up enough to get things planted in the garden. Hopefully it will in the next couple of weeks.
I bought cornflower seeds, "Double Blue", and want to sow some of them, too. I love cornflowers.

Hello and thank you very much, Jinny. I'd like very much to have the seeds. What a nice selection.
I've sent you a p.m. and look forward to growing the plants.

| I have Poppies in my garden.While poppies, like just about every other plant, need to be watered, they only like the soil slightly moist. In fact, they can tolerate almost drought like conditions. Keep this in mind so when you do water them, it is very light. If it has rained recently, even within the span of a week, the poppies may not need to be watered at all. Since poppies only bloom for a few days, many people opt to plant another annual over top of them to maintain the fullness of their flower garden. The poppies are so delicate that heavy winds or even hard rain may end up harming them. While very beautiful, the poppy is a flower that should be considered part of a mixture of other flowers instead of grown just on its own. Since it is easy to cultivate, they make a great addition to any garden.
