Poppies should be planted where you want them to grow in the spring. They

are
not fussy about soil type and proably do better on poor soil than rich :~)

Sow them now as well, since they tend to do better after a couple of frosts,
or at least after a period of cold weather. Let's face it now is when the
plants would sow them !
