Gardening Questions and Answers

A new gardening question of the day appears every day of the year on the front page of Almanac.com. Below is the answer to one of the questions from our Gardening Questions and Answers Archive where you can find over 400 more gardening questions (with answers!).

Question:

Have you heard of Shirley poppies? I haven't been able to find them.

Answer:

Yes, the seeds of Shirley poppies can be scattered even on top of the snow! Choose a sunny day after a fresh snow and scatter them thinly on top of the snow. When the snow melts in early spring, seedlings will appear. Garden supply stores should have these seeds in stock now.
