Planting & Care
Planting & Care
Soil & Water: Sow seeds directly into a finely textured, well-drained garden bed in full sun as early in spring as the ground can be worked. Keep soil moist as seedlings emerge. When mature, poppy plants can handle dry conditions, but they will always bloom longer if regularly watered.
Planting & Growing: Plant as early as possible in spring, as poppies can handle light frost and bloom best and longest when plants get a good start in cool weather. In mild winter climates, poppies can also be sown in late fall to overwinter for spring bloom. Except in very poor soil, these California poppies will grow and flower readily with no added fertilizer. Space seeds several inches apart, cover 1/4" deep and firm soil gently. Weed young seedlings carefully. If seedlings come up very thick, thin poppies early but delay final thinning until seedlings are well established in spring. Space seedlings 6" apart as plants need room to grow and bloom. At season's end, allow spent flowers to form pods and drop seed if you want poppies to self-sow for next year's spring flowers.

from 9256 reviewsBulbs were dry, perfect to separate cloves. 1st time planting this variety. Very pleased so far.
Garlic arrived quickly. Nice healthy large cloves. Sprouted and came up in under 2 weeks. It's growing nicely and is about 6" tall right now
I love your seeds. Thank you so much for providing such a valuable resource during this horrible time with the food supply. Grow your own groceries!!!!...
I received the Shallots, they are very large and beautiful. I planted them and now we wait until they are ready for harvest, late spring or early summer.
A few cloves weren’t in good condition and I ended up with quite a few small cloves. I also ordered Shallots and I was disappointed that neither came with planting instructions. Even though I have planted them for many years, I couldn’t remember the correct spacing and depth for the garlic.
This Siberian is the best! Showed up in great shape, love this stuff!
Grow organic never let's us down! Russian Red garlic is fragrant and delicious!
Big garlic bulbs with large cloves arrived. I planted a couple of weeks ago and they are already starting to sprout!!!!
So happy with these! Planted within a day of package arrival and have a little bed of blooms five weeks later! Kept a hail/animal screen over them until recently because we have voracious bunnies. Will likely dig up corms over winter to make sure they don’t get frostbitten. Zone 5B.
I am very pleased with my purchase and am looking forward to harvest. The bulbs are of a good size and firmness. I have no doubts the coming harvest will be wonderful.
I received beautiful large garlic cloves. I'm very happy with them so far. They sprouted and came up in less than two weeks and are now 5" tall. Looking forward to harvest time next year
I accidentally planted a little early but I belive this will be a fantastic crop!!
Hoping this fabric will give me a break for a year or two from weeding!
Grow Organic continues to provide quality trees, plants, and flowers. They are the first people I look to when buying things for my garden.
Most of my garlic has sprouted and is growing vigorously . It has been dry so the sprouts emerged after watering . I look forward to the different taste and smells that these cloves will produce in late spring or early summer here in East Tennessee . Thanks for your quality products and service . Grow organic for life !
