I sowed poppy somniferum seeds last autumn and overwintered them in
the
slightly-heated greenhouse (because I didn't know where I wanted to
plant
them but I wanted an early start this year).
When can I plant them out into the ground outside?
Is it not illegal to cultivate opium poppies here?
If not, why do the Afghans go to all the trouble to grow them for the
export
of heroin?
