Golden West California Poppy Seeds from Survival Garden Seeds produce cheerful, sunlit flowers with bright yellow petals and warm orange centers. This classic California poppy variety brings reliable color and effortless beauty to gardens, meadows, and naturalized landscapes.
Native to North America, Golden West poppies are exceptionally drought and heat tolerant, thriving in poor or sandy soils where other flowers struggle. Plants produce saucer-shaped blooms with four silky petals that open in sunlight and gently close at night or during cloudy weather, creating a dynamic and ever-changing display. Mass plantings highlight their natural beauty and create sweeping drifts of color.
Depending on climate, Golden West California Poppies can be grown as a perennial in warm regions or as a self-seeding annual in areas with winter frost. Their nectar-rich flowers attract bees, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators, making them a valuable addition to pollinator gardens and native wildflower mixes.

- Bright yellow petals with orange centers

How to Use / How to Grow:
Direct sow California poppy seeds outdoors after the danger of frost has passed, or in fall for mild-winter regions. Lightly press seeds into the soil without covering, as light aids germination. Plant in full sun and well-drained soil. Once established, poppies require very little water and care. Allow plants to self-seed for naturalized displays year after year.
