I sowed some Californian poppy seeds. Are any of these the poppy seedlings ?

    I've just taken this picture in my garden, these are Californian poppy seedlings. They're quite easy, if you manage to get hold of some seed capsules and broadcast the seeds then you're bound to get them.

    Californian poppies have leaves like parsley or carrots except they are a light green.  A beauty appeared in my garden last year and this year I have orange poppies to go!!

    A good hoeing is worth two waterings.

    Leave them to themselves. They don't like help
