Poppy questions......
    #6180836 - 10/17/06 10:53 PM (17 years, 5 months ago)



So if I scoop the gravel out of a large garden bed in my backyard, what would be the ideal soil mix to place into said bed for poppies???
In your opinion.  :smirk:
I havent grown in years, and I remember my old mixes, but I just wanted to see what you guys had to say about soil mixes.

ALSO, the bed has a depth about 4-6 inches, I know poppies dont grow down, they grow to the side, but is as little as 4 inches of dirt enough to sustain them all through this fall and next summer???

I plan on having a fat patch. :sun: :laugh:

I also plan on growing SOME of my poppies in pots...

So for some areas in my yard I have to use pots.

So, whats the best poppy strain for container growing????
I know using a pot isnt ideal, but for certain areas of my yard I have too use them. Basically I cant dig up the yard, and if I do, it has to be clever, i.e. dig out weeds, replace with garded flowers(poppies)
edit: also, what are some veggies and fruits that dont mind shallow beds, I cant JUST grow poppies in this garden bed, the neighboors will stare, and wonder  :smirk: :stoned:

Thanks!!!  :thumbup: :heart: :thumbup:

loose, chalky loam.
mix in straw and compost

try to get plants in bunches of 3, about a foot apart from other bunches. you can grow them closer, but they will be smaller.

lay some compost in the places between and keep watered untill flowering is under way. then stop. only water when very dry.
