I just placed my seed order from Pinetree (superseeds.com) Mostly

vegetables, but a few flowers and herbs too.



In my flower garden I'm going to grow poisonous plants this year for the

foundation; so maybe the rabbits will leave them alone :-) Foxgloves,

nicotiana, and opium poppies. Do I need to plant the poppies as soon as

the ground surface thaws a little? I seem to recall that they need a

few freeze/thaw cycles to germinate well, but that might be a different

kind of poppy. Can they be transplanted?
