Papaver Somniferum

Double Fringe Red Poppy

"Dragon's Tongue"

Grown in my Garden!

Large Blooms, Shaggy Red Fringe 

The seeds are freshly harvested from this summer's (2007) flowers.

You can't get them any fresher than this.  ">

Produces Large Spotted Pods

Great for Fresh Floral arrangements or Drying

Long Thick Stems

 The Time to Plant is Now!

2007 flowers are as brilliant as the year before! 

They have been coming back as red as the year before, year after year!

Below are pictures of my Wizard of Oz to show you growth habit etc

There were over 100 pods on the one plant shown below. There is something to be gained by thinning your poppy plants. I know it is hard, but in the long run, you get more blooms.



These seeds are fresh from my garden and are what is left after giving them to my friends to "Poppylate" the world!

I named these poppies "Dragon's Tongue" . They remind me of the Fiery Red jagged Flame that comes from a Dragon's mouth when he roars!! I grow and develope my own strains. I have named my poppies aptly and have not tried to take the names of other strains unless I know for sure that is what I have. I also developed my Extremely VIBRANT RED "Wizard of OZ" and named them. I now see a couple of other sellers have now "borrowed"  my name for the and I'm sure it will only be a matter of time before you see someone copying "dragons tongue" as well.

My seeds are home grown. Don't be fooled by sellers that are buying them at the grocery store and labeling them as home grown  poppies just to make a sale. There are only a few sellers on ebay who grow their own seeds, and I am one of them. I have been selling on ebay for  9 years now.

This auction is for Red Dragon's Breath only. Look for more variety on my other auctions. 

The seeds germinate freely and you will never have to buy them again, unless you want other colors, or like other gardeners, you can't stand the sight of the unsightly brown plants as they go to seed.. Your plants will produce so many seeds that they can be easily used for baking, hence the nickname "breadseed poppies".

Naturally resistant to Predators. Deer proof.

Germination testing on this years seeds were a complete sucess. I have about 98% germination

I will send 1/8 teaspoon which is 500 to 1000 seeds. I'm not counting them, you can! I will include planting instructions upon request.

It is nearly impossible to count out thousands of poppy seeds.

The generally accepted measurements are as follows:

1/8th teaspoon - 1000 seeds

1/4th teaspoon - 2000 - 2500 seeds

1/2 teaspoon - 5000 seeds

The above seed count is an average for ALL poppy seeds. I am selling them by the measuring spoon method only and do not guarantee the exact number of seeds!!

Shipping: Buyer pays shipping. I will gladly combine shipping on 2 or more items. I charge $2.00 for the first bag of seeds and then .50 for each bag of seeds thereafter up to a maximum shipping amount of $7.50 for anything under 50 bags of seeds.

I do NOT make money on shipping! My costs are outlined below

I use only padded bubble mailers and send them as a parcel. This means in addition to the cost of the padded mailer (.49 each) and small baggies (.10 each), labels, ink etc, I also pay the surcharge for non-machinable parcel ($1.31 for a 1 ounce parcel, plus .48 cents for each additional ounce) and delivery confirmation fee(.18cents). 

Checkout: I use checkout only. I do not send after auction e-mails. It is the buyers responsiblity to complete the checkout form within 3 days of the auction's end.

My Feedback Policy: If you send me money, I leave you feedback. I do not make sure you give me a positive feedback before I leave you one. I usually post it in batches after I know your item has arrived safely. If you want to leave me one, that is great. That is the way it is supposed to work.

 

My seeds are guaranteed to be viable. They are easy to grow, however Your results could vary so I urge you to read my planting and growing guide to give you the best possible chance for success

Please read my ebay guide for growing instructions by following the link:

Please, If you plan to buy my seeds to re-sell, I respectfully request that you do NOT use my photos, my poppy names, my descriptions, my backgrounds or my planting instructions to do so. It against eBay policy and will be enforced. I hate to put warnings like this and apologize, but unfortunately I have had to put this disclaimer on my auctions as several so called "seed sellers" have started doing this. Evidently one of the "get rich on ebay books" promotes this type of activity.
