I went out on Monday to find my first Red Oriental poppy. How long do their blooms last? I noticed there are more buds coming about to open up but the bloom that was open on Monday morning is gone. Could the rain we had last night have caused the bloom to fall off? I've heard that poppies are big reseeders. What do I do when it is finished blooming? How does it reseed more poppies?
Can we discuss poppies?
