dont see why not,but others on here know more than me so wait til someone tells you,you can plant them and if they dont come up at least you tryed

It looks like an especially nice Oriental Poppy. You should be able to plant the seeds now, but I wouldn't expect flowers until 2011--it's a hardy perennial, and spends its first summer growing leaves and roots, storing energy for next year.

yes grow them. they may give you identical flowers or variations [like normal brother ans sister differences.]
if you want more of the same plant you can split the clump in the early spring. or take root cuttings early spring too.
they normally take 2 seasons to get to flowering size in my experience.

the reason why i asked about seeds is because they are outside someones house, am not sure they wouldn't appreciate me digging up their beautiful poppy lol, but am sure they wouldnt mind me recycling their seeds.

Best ask, anyway, Clairey: they may have their eyes on the seeds, also! : )

oh i def will do, failing that lil ones grand parents have one in their garden, but this one has got approx 20 buds on plus another oriental poppy next to it with another 20 more buds, its a very nice one.
