How do California poppies reproduce? |
[Edit] |
Answer
The seeds are loose and blow off with the wind.
the actual flower petals fall off, do not cut because the center of the flower will continue grow longer. it is filling with seeds. cut the long center off after it turns brown, open it and it will be full of little black seeds. i discovered this by accident. in the wild it pops open and the wind will blow the little seeds around. for your own seeds off your own poppies cut before it pops open and you will have a very big collection of your own seeds.
The flowers are pollinated by insects and then as above.
