The cliff gardens in town have some wonderful poppies growing in them -
frilled, various shades for mauve and so on. Unfortunately, the council is
in the process of "formalising" the gardens, and are about to rip them all
out! If I go and take some seed pods now, while they are still green, will
the seed ripen?

Kathy, I have 2 types of poppy; 1 looks a bit like the opium poppy,
beautiful full red flower. If you like I can save you some seeds and
send them to you? Email me if you like.

Thanks Judith, I have deep red ones already. Curtsey of bird seed, I think,
as I certainly didn't plant them. They look so good that it has sparked my
interest in the varieties down in the cliff gardens.
