Oh I love them, never a problem here they just seed around gently and mingle with the other plants. They seed vigorously here, among plants including veg, in cracks and paths. I do think they're bonny but they're very difficult to uproot. Even the hens don't eat them! I don't mind bigger poppies, the annual ones, because they can easily be pulled out after flowering. It's just the darned Welsh ones :-( Perhaps you don't grow veg. Our garden is small and I have to make full use of every part. Mary |

Our garden is small too, and even smaller considering the pond takes up almost half the space, but we have an Allotment for growing our veg. -- Regards Bob Hobden 17mls W. of London.UK |

And I hope it's not going to be taken over as a brown field site or for an Olympic car park :-( Mary |

No none on the allotment, pretty though they are they would be weeds there. :-) And I hope it's not going to be taken over as a brown field site or for an Olympic car park :-( I hope so too, our old large site is being turned into a Town Park (so they say, little movement there despite us all being kicked off a couple of years ago) the one we moved to is only a small site near the M25/M3 Thorpe junction and we are too far away and on the opposite side of London from the 2012 Olympics area to be of any interest to them, thank goodness. Don't get me going on that subject,... please! :-( -- Regards Bob Hobden 17mls W. of London.UK |

Don't bank on it :-( Don't get me going on that subject,... please! :-( Sorry, but even up here in Yorkshire there's strong feeling about every aspect of it. Mary |
