How wonderful is this! Poppy seeds germinating inside an old poppy husk.

Excuse me ma'am. I was wondering if it would be OK to ask you a few questions about the Danish flag poppies that you grew. Absolutely gorgeous by the way. I'm really excited now that I've seen yours in full bloom. I just germinated my seedlings at the end of January. I'm not sure if they have hit s wall as far as getting bigger is concerned or if they are usually slower growing plants. My poppies seemed to be on track but now the majority are laying down as if the leaves are too heavy for the s

Stem. Also I thought they'd be bigger at this point in time. I'd say my tallest one is a little over 2 inches 5.08cm....Right now they're planted in a large planter & are doing well I as far as I can tell except for the obvious. Is their any advice you can send me. I know they're temperamental & would really appreciate your experience & knowledge. I'm also planting gigantumum & Afgan blue for experimental purposes seeing I'm a rookie to all this. Thank you & hope to hear from you soon

Poppy (I think) Panama rose. Perennial apparently. It has a gorgeous vivid candyfloss pink colour.
