My neighbor gave me some seeds from her poppies last fall and I liberally spread them around my gardens. She told me this would be the only way I would be able to grow my own poppies and that they could not be transplanted. I was upset when I noticed them coming up here and there but in the worst places for example, under a bush, practically hugging other plants or in huge clumps so I decided I was going to dig them up and try moving them around since they would not survive anyway. To my surprise they are all doing extremely well and so now they will grow in just the right places I want them to be. I thought this was pretty darn amazing especially since I am not a seasoned gardener. I guess it just goes to show that poppies really can be transplanted and all I did was pluck them out of the soil, poke a hole in another spot and dropped the poppy seedling into it and covered it up. Something else I did might have made a difference I'm not sure but I always water my transplants with Miracle Grow Transplanting feed and it seems to work for me on all my transplants.

When can you transplant a flowering poppy?
Poppies are notorious for being impossible to transplant. However, if you've planted starts in peat moss, you may have more luck planting them than digging flowering poppies out of the ground and transplanting them to a new location. If you want to re-arrange your poppies, you could seed the area where you want the poppies to bloom and simply dig up the old stand.
