Chelidonium Majus Fl. Pl.

Description

Large numbers of heavily doubled cup-shaped tiny yellow "poppies" are massed in branching sprays. Finely divided leaves make a substantial sprawling mass during spring and summer on this unusual member of the poppy family.

Sowing Advice

Sow immediately at any time onto preferably a soil-based compost, covering with fine grit to approximately their own depth. Germination MAY be quicker if kept at 15 to 20 degrees C. but many seeds WILL NOT come up the year they are sown, needing winter chilling after sowing, and ONLY come up with natural spring germination.
