Hoping to add something constructive, kate typed

I've got bread seed poppies - they're about a foot tall, huge beautiful
leaves and no sign of flower buds. It hasn't been very hot here yet -
lots of rain - is there hope?

Kate,

Last year in September and again in January I spread handfuls of the seeds
around. It took a few months for them to sprout, the ones planted in
September came up first with the others following about two to three weeks
later.
I've had flowers and pods for a good month, now. The last to come up are
still flowering but most are only pods The earlier plants are almost dry on
the stem. Most of the leaves on the plants are turning brown already, but
there's still a bit of green left.
We had torrential rains all winter till mid March.
I'm in Zone 6 - Tri-Valley, CA.
