The slender stems and vivid blooms create a striking display in cottage gardens, wildflower plantings and borders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce a common sight in European agricultural fields, the Flanders Poppy became an enduring symbol of remembrance following the First World War, particularly after flourishing across the disturbed ground of the Western Front.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEasy to grow and quick to establish, plants flower generously through the cooler growing season and are attractive to bees and other pollinating insects. Once flowering finishes, decorative seed capsules develop and plants can readily self-seed in favourable conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe mature seeds are edible and have traditionally been used in breads, cakes, biscuits and other baked goods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeed count: approximately 7,000 seeds\/g\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApproximately 1,800 seeds per packet\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhen to Plant (Australia)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTropics: Autumn to winter in cooler locations\u003cbr\u003eSubtropics: Autumn to winter\u003cbr\u003eMild climates: Autumn to early spring\u003cbr\u003eCold climates: Autumn or early spring\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting \/ Sowing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSow directly where plants are to grow, as Poppies dislike root disturbance.
