Lots fresh of purple passion fruit and california poppy
Comments (10)I am interested in passion fruit and poppy seeds. Like mybabygirls, I have just recently moved from an apartment into a townhouse, so my trades are limited. I do have some cape honeysuckle seed pods I would be willing to trade. I also have this really unusual succulent that looks like an aloe plant, but instead of spikes, it puts off tiny succulents that are its "seeds". Please let me know if you are interested in trading....See MoreWANTED: double poppy, california poppy
Comments (0)I have tons of seeds. Tell me what you have in exchange The double poppies are pinkish and pink/red. Very pretty. Calif poppies are yellow and are very easy to grow. I've had problems with poppy seeds germinating in this past, but certainly not this year....See MorePoppy seeds (for cooking) from California poppies?
Comments (13)Terri, that was a good article. I wish the article had included a picture of the poppies, though. I got some seed marked "Gray-Seeded Poppy" in a bunch of seeds mailed to me as bonus in a seed trade. I have seen posts by people who say it is illegal to grow them so I'm glad to see in the article you provided the link to about "intent". I am one of those gray-haired grandmothers. Here is a picture of the poppies that grew from the seed I was sent: I thought the flowers were quite attractive. The center of the flower reminds me of a little spaceship. When the flower is done, it leaves a pod that looks to me like a little salt shaker on a stem. When the seeds have matured enough, the pod dries and shrinks back from a little scalloped "hat" to reveal holes. If you turn the pod upside down and give it a little shake, the seeds will come out like salt out of a salt shaker. They are, indeed, gray. Like the article said, I would think you could plant poppy seed from your spice rack. In the case of something like marijuana, you can get in trouble for having either the plant or the seed. So since we can buy poppy seed in any store, and I've never heard of anyone raiding somebody's spice rack, I find it a little odd that anybody's raiding someone's flower garden. Again, I suppose it would make a difference if you had an entire FIELD of them, as the article said. --Ilene...See MoreLooking for- Pompom Poppies of all sorts or peonies poppies
