Like Martin, I grew oriental poppies in the greenhouse last year because a
friend with only a small garden had asked me to start some off for her.
Germination was reasonable for most varieties (we had about 8 different) and
transplanting them was not a problem.

Tell us more. What size containers did you use for the sowing?
How did you manage to sow the seeds thinly enough?

I have a number of packets of poppy seed of various kinds and
they don't do well in my garden if broadcast, so I have a special
interest in container sowing.
