Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- I live in MI and direct seed these guy last year, took them awhile to start but once they bloom they continue till almost everything already die to the ground and still blooming, they just so resilient and beautiful.
- Gotta love the California poppies
- Those are stunning California poppies WOW
- Thanks! I definitely want tufts of poppies all over the place for years to come.
- Parent context: Are those California poppies and bachelor's buttons together? I'm obsessed!!! I love an orange + purple or blue combo. Reply: Yessss this is great! This is what I hope happens here, too. They’re my favorite of the bunch.
Cons
- I'm in SLC and have had weirdly mixed results with seeding California poppies. Some of them do seem to come up, but never when I expect them to? Like I swear I've had some wait a full 6 months before germinative.
- I live in CO, and I put out about $20 of packets worth of these on my hellstrip and absolutely 0 came up. Honestly I'm a little disappointed

Picked few from my farm the other day. Love that bright color!
It was bright and beautiful and she was so upset bc it’s not what she had planned. Seeing California poppies always make me smile now and I got a tattoo of them to remember her.
