    Customer photo review of Poppy Seeds - Blue Moon

    I planted by direct sow in January in zone 7b and they bloomed in June. Big robust flowers with silvery green foliage. Gorgeous!

    Most of my seeds usually will grow coming from eden brother but both packs of blue moon wouldn't germinate. I think it is sometimes erased by postal shipping. Should be marked seeds do not xray open if needed!

    Ordered Blue Moon poppy seeds and started some via winter sowing in milk jugs on 1.27.24 in NJ. Had good germination and 6 plants moved to their final home. Each had a single flower this june. Two were like blue moon, but fringed, another was solid deep purple fringed, two were a smaller salmon red fringed and one was what I ordered. Nice seed heads on the three blue moon like plants, but I really wonder what the babies are going to look like. I really did the type of seeds I ordered (hence the low rating), but if life gives you lemons...... ps. It would make an interesting seed mix.
