My experience with Oriental Poppies from plant are it will not bloom the first year.....Mine took actually 3 years to really bloom. The second year I had a few blooms....True to perennial lour, the first year the sleep, the second year they creep and the third year they leap.

After they bloom and die back, they do get pretty "ratty" looking, I just cope with it and cut them way back. I have two colors, the bright orange and a pink...
