: ) seeds you have, and seeds you want...

I have seen pictures of 2 poppies that i would LOVE to get, if anyone has some seeds, please let me know..........they are Irish Cream poppy, and Hens and Chicks poppy.

 

You can find anything but pennyg,

Red, pink, white. Prints, duvets..ahahahahaha but no cream poppies.

 

Someone from this forum sent me seeds for a pink double poppy, and my aunt grew them this year and said she's never seen anything like them! Says they have another flower in behind the 1st one, and they are a fully double bloom.

If ya want, I can include some for ya, Penny? My aunt really raved them up to be something - making me real sorry I didn't try them yet. Let me know if you're interested and I'll put them on the list...

: )

 

I've been told that they are both hard to find, and really popular, and from the looks of them, i can see why.

I have some seeds for Danish Flag poppy drying, another beautiful one.

 

Yes please, that would be great Sherry, thanks.

 

I *will keep looking for the interest of seeing what they are looking like Pennyg.

 

No problem, Penny!

I am just mad at myself that they are so nice, and I didn't grow any. My aunt is rubbing it in real good, too! I could just choke her!

: O

 

Too cute, lesson learned and now you know to grow them.
Google the Danish Flag one and i can send out seeds.

 

Are you kidding me?!!!

Who wouldn't want seeds for these?!!!

: O

 

Thats them, i just love them.
The seeds will be ready soon.
I'll be adding those to my list of "haves" too.

 

Thanks a lot, Penny - they are so pretty.

I am sending you seeds for these as well - the blue cornflower. This shot belongs to the person who sent me the seeds. I love the blue color...

: )

 

OMG....those are incredible, i've never seen those before, so pretty!~~

 

Oh, I am so glad you like them, Penny.

The seeds pop, in 4 days! Even though it's a bit late in the season, I just couldn't help but grow a couple plants anyway! I have three seedlings growing right now. The blue color is so awesome and I intend on letting them bloom indoors. I just want to see the flowers, so bad.

I am including some for you, but just remember they can be pretty tall I was told - 3 to 4 feet. Grow them at the back of the garden.

: )

 

Will do, i just cant get over the vibrancy of the blue, they'll make a great addition to anyone's garden.

 

I know, it's what I loved about them too. The rich blue color is just too amazing.

: O

I had a feeling you'd like them too.

: )

 

Corn flower blue is a lovely color,

I love this Poppy too as well as your Pennyg:

A forum I came accross asked 'is it legal' to grow'? She went on to say she did'nt want aggro from passers by lolol

 

Too funny, and if you would like some seeds from the Danish Flag poppy, just send me a PM with your address Katalina, and i will mail them off to you when they are ready, which shouldnt be too much longer.

 

Yes, and if you hold off Katalina, I am sending Penny some of the blue cornflowers and can send some extra for you too, and Penny can forward them with her poppy seeds! Sound good?

: )

 

Good idea Sherry, not a problem sending them on....saves on stamps (LOL)!!

 

Oh but I have no seeds to send now, Sherry has them all..ahahahaha

I will wait till I see something special in town here. I never before found myself looking on the street gardens to nick seed..lmaoooooooo...cuttings yea, not seed.

 

Seed collecting, swapping and sharing is big business now from what I have seen.

 

I've been doing that too Katalina.....seeing somthing on the street and taking a wee piece to get seeds from........my husband thinks i am nuts now!!

 

lololololool

Tell him..just desperate. I can't believe years ago I used to even carry a pair of scissors in my handbag, now I just have poly bag so what I 'catch' does'nt dry out on the way home.

I will share the blue cornflower seeds with ya anyway Katalina - I have lots. You sent me so many great seeds before and I like to spread mine around because I sure can't use them all anyway.

I was amazed at how quickly they germinated - inside of 4 days!

: O

My seedlings are already growing. Might put them outside in a pot, but bring it back inside if frost threatens before I've seen the blooms. I bet they grow super fast. I know I can support them, light wise, indoors or out.

I have just got to see those beautiful blue flowers up-close! I will take pics as my plants grow and bloom...

: )

 

Thanks HBL,

Don't send any yet though please. I am surprised that you can grow seed from Pot Marigold from now till next spring.

Yet when I tried in sspring last year the blighters would not sprout till april. I tried to 'con nature' by sowing in january but they knew what game I was at lolol
