Most gardens have a tricky area to plant somewhere. It may be a very shady patch which is situated under a large tree. To make matters even worse, this shady aspect may also be very dry, making growing all but the hardiest of plants difficult. On the other hand, you may be having trouble growing plants in an area which is flooded with sunlight all day and therefore becomes very dry and hot. Finding plants to suit such areas can be immensely difficult, and it may simply be a case of trial and error to try and get something to take. However, if you’re looking for plants which can grow in almost any aspect, then it is worth using Papaver somniferum seeds.

When you think of drought tolerant gardens the first plants that may spring to mind are succulents and cacti, along with other plant species more accustomed to growing in a desert.

And one group of plants that you could consider if you want to create a garden which requires less water is that of the Papaver somniferum.

Gardens, by their very nature, are a continually changing environment. In the short term each season brings about different growth, flowers, and foliage whether it’s the rush of green in the spring months, or the changing leaf hues in the fall. Over longer periods of time gardens are an ever changing environment as plants mature, die, are removed, or added to the mix. If you love nothing more than to enjoy a garden which is constantly changing throughout the year then you need to plant a range of species will which offer different traits depending on the month and season. And one great group of plants which are fantastic for this are Oriental poppies.

Whether it’s a few beautifully kept pots, or a beautiful rolling lawn with vibrant flowerbed at the end, the use of plants can do wonders for any property’s curb-side appeal. Thriving and beautiful plants instantly provide an aesthetic appeal, not to mention connotations that the house owners take time to look after themselves, their home, and their garden.

You may assume that you can only enjoy the beauty of flowers if you have a garden, whether its a large or small space. If you live in an urban area, getting access to outside areas other than public parks can often be difficult, especially in the modern world where sky rise apartment blocks are becoming increasingly common. This doesn’t mean that you can’t grow a range of plants and flowers to bring color to your environment. And if you’re looking for a great group of plants which suit small containers and baskets then California poppies are ideal.

Most gardeners, no matter how tirelessly they work in their garden, will get some gaps in their borders at some point.

These gaps can often make the difference between having a good garden and a great garden and they can easily be filled in with California poppies.

The Bumblebee is a wild relative of the honey bee. There are currently 25 species of Bumblebee in the United Kingdom, all on the decline. Not only do they pollinate a wide variety of flowers, fruit and vegetables, they play a key part in pollinating rare plants that other insects do not, or cannot pollinate. Bumblebees pollinate plants using a method called ‘buzz pollination’, which means they vibrate their wings to shake the pollen of the flowers.
