Gena Murray on Instagram: "Most poppies need a period of cold to germinate. There are many methods of cold stratifying Poppy seeds. After years of trying (and failing) to grow poppies this method finally worked for me. 

What I do is freeze my poppy seeds in ice cube trays (3 per cell), leave them in the freezer for 2-3 weeks, and then put them in the ground in February/March (Give or take). I’m located in zone 6b. 

Warmer zones may have better luck sowing in fall or during your coldest months. Also California Poppies are hardier in warmer climates up though zone 10. The poppies I grow in 6B are mostly breadseed varieties. 

Please refer to previous reels for step by step details on how to cold stratify your poppies. I put them up in my highlighted reels section.
