California Poppy Seeds – Native Drought-Tolerant Wildflower with Classic Orange Blooms

California Poppy Seeds from Survival Garden Seeds produce one of the most recognizable and resilient native wildflowers in North America. This classic variety features brilliant orange, cup-shaped blooms held above blue-green foliage on compact plants reaching 12–18 inches tall.

Exceptionally adaptable, California poppies thrive across much of the United States and perform well in a wide range of conditions. They are especially well suited to poor or sandy soils and require very little care once established. Plants bloom best during the cooler weather of spring and fall, providing vibrant color when many other flowers are just getting started or beginning to fade.

These cheerful poppies are ideal for mass plantings, wildflower meadows, garden beds, and containers. Their nectar-rich flowers attract bees, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators, adding ecological value alongside their bright seasonal color.

How to Use / How to Grow:
Direct sow California poppy seeds outdoors after the danger of frost has passed, or in fall for regions with mild winters. Lightly press seeds into the soil without covering, as light aids germination. Plant in full sun and well-drained soil. Once established, plants are drought tolerant and require little additional care. Allow plants to self-seed for recurring displays in future seasons.
