Description
Mikado’s deep scarlet-orange blossoms and fern-like foliage make it one of the most beautiful of the California poppies. Very hardy and easy to grow.
Start outdoors in a sunny location in early spring two weeks prior to last frost, or fall/winter in areas with mild winters. Germinates best in cool weather and well-drained soil. Keep young plants evenly moist and well weeded. Do not fertilize. Blooms profusely in cooler growing conditions and can rebound in the fall after summer heat. Plants tolerate poor soil and light drought. Remove faded flowers to encourage more blossoms.
