The Garden Home Retreat is certainly full of the abundance of the garden; fresh fruit, tasty produce and a bounty of blooms that treat you would every turn.
Now, now if you are a fan of California Poppies then you are going to want to see this amazing mix. It is called Mission Bells. I am just wowed by the blend of double and semi-double flowers; in pink, scarlet, gold and cherry. Once you get passed the blooms you will notice the finely cut Glaucus foliage, what a bonus. At the Garden Home Retreat, I direct sow these seeds in the late winter and again in the early spring. You see, I wanted the poppies to come up around this onion sets because they are delicate plants and they will not smother things.
Now, if you grow this from seeds, your best bet for success is to always follow the package directions. Here you will see that Mission Bells California Poppies require only two weeks for germination and they will bloom in just 90 days.
