Can anyone tell me how to prepare the soil for poppies? I've heard they
like sand (I am in KY in Zone 6) but am not quite sure how to prepare
the ground for the seeds. My tomato seedlings are thriving and I can't
wait to get back into the garden. Don't know why my purple coneflowers
died off last year though!

Just scratch the surface with a rake and sprinkle them around. Be sure to
plant early enough for the seeds to get frosted a few times -- they like that.

Best regards,
