    ok thanks Steve, please send me your address in email, will send one young plant off on monday, then put it in the required position .. south or west facing prefarably, it's self clinging but a guiding rope or strong wire will help where you want it to go, otherweise it will be crawling all over ground or other plants.

    Hi Paladin
    I would love some poppy and lupin seeds but I have nothing to exchange as i havn,t got a clue how to harvest and keep safe anything. But I would love to send stuff to anybody once I do have.I don't think I have much in my garden that people won't already have.As soon as I learn how to send pics etc I will post a picture of my garden then if ther is anything ther that is of use then be my guest.

    T poppies are the easiest of all plants to get seeds, once the petals have fallen off. leave the stems and you will notice the pods will start to swell, leave it intill you can hear rattling inside, then it's the time to cut stems off about 10" ,don't turn upside down, as there is an opening , or you will scatter them, put in a paper bag, tie something around put upside down in a dry airy place and hang upside down and in a few weeks they will dry, put them in a small container, label and date.
