I have recently harvested a lot of pink poppy seeds and would like to know when i should sow them and how long it would be before they flower?

You can sow them straight away and the plants will be in flower late spring/early summer 

Or you can keep them and sow in the spring, in which case they will flower a little later

Thanks Sunshine. Jusr need to decide where i want them now!

We've decided to grow more poppies next year.  I have a mass of the yellow ones and if you keep up with them they can look very nice but are a nuisance if you let them get out of hand.  I also have some Himalyan poppies which are hugh and fabulous.

I've got some of the British Legion red poppies so I will be hoping I have just as much success with them.  If anyone has any more pointers for successful cultivation I'd appreciate them.

Good luck with your pink ones by the way!

Pink Poppies - sound lovely, hoping to grow some poppies but need to find a not so windy spot in the garden, otherwise I will have lovely petal less poppies!  Are pink poppy seeds easy to find? The veg patch has had most of my attention this year, hoping to create a lovely flower garden next year.

Most seed companies have some pink varieties -- not sure which ones you have in France, though
