California Poppy Gift of Seeds - Sow 'n Sow

These enchanting, sun-loving flowers embody the essence of joy, beauty, and enduring connections.

Celebrate joyous moments and cherished friendships by gifting a California Poppy Gift of Seeds. As the poppies bloom with vibrant orange hues, they mirror the happiness shared in cherished moments. This thoughtful gesture not only symbolises the warmth and positivity of the friendship but also offers the opportunity to nurture a living reminder of the cheerful times and the deep connection that brings light to their lives.

Featuring original illustrations by Melbourne artist Daniella Germain, this Gift of Seeds is designed and made in Australia, printed on 100% post-consumer waste recycled card and plastic free. Our products are designed to promote a connection with nature and enjoy simple pleasures.

Californian poppy seeds are best sown in spring and summer for blooming later in the season, however in mild climates, seeds can be sown in autumn for flowering in spring.

Scatter Californian poppy seeds in a sunny position with well-draining soil free of weeds. Cover seeds with a thin layer of soil and keep them moist until the seeds have germinated.

It's best to sow Californian poppy seeds directly into the soil as they don't tolerate their roots being disturbed. Once the seedlings have established, thin them out to 15cm apart and water regularly to ensure an abundant supply of blooms.

After flowers have bloomed, leave them to seed as there is a good chance they will self-seed and sprout up the following year giving you fresh new blooms to enjoy.

Each card features original artwork by Daniella Germain and includes a packet of seeds, a tear-away biodegradable plant label and sowing instructions.

• Made in Australia
• 100% recycled paper
• Includes an illustrative recycled card plant label to mark where your seeds are planted
• Comes with a recycled kraft envelope for mailing

Varieties included: Eschscholzia californica

The Seeds

Our seeds are non-hybrid, open pollinated, non-GMO varieties sourced from reputable suppliers both within Australia and abroad.

Seeds should be stored in a cool, dry place for best long term viability.

We recommend a shelf life of approximately 2 years for our Gifts of Seeds to ensure good germination rates.
