    Hello, I was wondering how easy it would be to grow Icelandic Poppies from seed?
    I have 2 plants and wondering when is the best time to collect their seed and grow on?

    Thanks in advance.

    Tried them a few years ago but not very successfully. Saw some plugs in Tesco (I think) a few weeks ago, depends which you want most - established plants or the satisfaction of maybe doing it all yourself. Good luck
