How to Propagate Plume poppy?
Primary propagation methods for plume poppy are division and seed sowing. For success, consider light exposure to be partial shade or full sun, while optimal temperature is moderate, avoiding extremes. Plume poppy prefers well-drained soil, rich in organic matter. A special technique for division involves careful separation of root clumps. Propagation is moderately difficult due to the size of the plant and the need to manage its spreading habit. For division: 1. Dig around the base of plume poppy after flowering. 2. Gently lift the clump, avoiding root damage. 3. Separate into smaller sections. 4. Replant immediately, spacing adequately. For seeds: 1. Sow in late winter or early spring. 2. Lightly cover seeds with soil. 3. Maintain consistent moisture until germination. Address potential challenges, such as adequate spacing to prevent overcrowding.
