Thanks Marguerite. I think I'll leave the harvesting of it for others, I've only grown them for the flowers. I'm not sure how it's made exactly but I believe it's somehow extracted from the seed-pod. Until earlier this year I'd never seen them for real before either but when I did I knew I had to add them to my collection, I try and grow every kind of poppy I can (some I manage to kill on a regular basis).
