Grow Your Own Magazine

I have apprx 200 seeds of meconopsis cambrica (WELSH POPPY) to go.
You should get a mix of pale yellow, pale orange and red. Some will
be double. Easy and Trouble free.
They pop up every year in my packed garden and I would not be without them.

I am after some perennial spinach seeds and overwintering onion
seeds too.

Cheers

oooh ooh ooh, yes please. LadyWayne loooooooves poppies.

Waddya want in return?

Edit: Bugger, just read what you're after and I don't have them...

I'll have a look at my seed box, I think I have both things you want, and I'd definitely like some poppies. I'll pm you after I have a look.

Oh yes please!!!!
I've pm'd you

You might regret the Welsh poppies. They are great to look at when they are in flower but they seed everywhere and spread like wildfire. In our garden they are almost like weeds.

...just what I'm looking for!!!!

....but thanks for the warning!

Where we are in France ( Hmmm..we might decide to stay here and sell in the UK!!!)...Ox eye daisies are everywhere...but can I get my self-sown ones to germinate?????

Foxgloves galore in the hedgerows...BUT..I'm VERY allergic to them!...so very pretty though!

I think my motto should be ...'Survival of the fittest' ..including my veg plot!!!!

I still have a yearning to move to France Nicos. I love the country and I love the attitude to life of the French people. They are wonderful. Lucky you.

Good luck with the Welsh poppies.

Yep, you are quite right Gwyndy! I am thankful for it though as they are so easy to yank out if they are not in the right place. I have compost rich soil so I should know. Thankfully though I dont find them a nuisance. They are just too pretty and long flowering for me to get fed up with them. Unlike most poppies they do like their moisture as they naturally grow on woodland floors so not much good for growing like field poppies I'm afraid.

I have received an offer of the spinach etc so thanks for all the interest.
I still have some seed left so if anyone has any "Tom Thumb" lettuce seeds I am still in the market. I am looking for Welsh Onion seeds too. They are so useful.

The double poppies dont set much seed as you can imagine so I dont have much left.
Cheers again for the interest.
