Yes, the variety you need is papaver somniferum, which believe it or not, is the same poppy that grows from common poppy seeds used in cooking. I have grown opium poppies by simply sowing the seeds bought from the spice section of the grocery store. Growing these is legal, however as soon as you cut the seed pod to extract the latex, you are a felon. Enjoy your garden, just sprinkle the seeds on the soil, very thin layer of soil to cover, after the plant flowers and the petals fall off, the seed pod will start to swell, maybe a week after flowering shallow cuts in the pod will yield white latex which dries to a brownish black tar. Raw opium, which can be smoked or eaten. This is for informational purposes only, I do not condone the illegal activity of extracting opium from poppies.

What did Britain want to import into China during the Opium War?

The British needed Chinese goods, primarily tea, but the Chinese didn't need anything from the British. That would leave a trade deficit on the British side, so they got the Chinese nation addicted to opium (unprocessed heroin) which they produced in India. When the Chinese emperor tried to ban opium, the Chinese people rebelled against him, backed by the British, which led to Opium wars.

How do you you make opium?

One does NOT "make" opium. Opium is poppy flower resin, usually dried and smoked. This is turned into other drugs like morphine and heroin. - I think the question meant how to extract it.First you need some poppies of the species papaver somniferum. Wait till these flower and then the petals drop off. There should then be some seed pods. It's best to now wait 2-3 weeks for these to mature.Extracting opium is illegal and therefore should not be done...but if one did wish to do it anyway then they would then score the pods, top to bottom, about 1mm deep. It would be best to do this in the evening. The next morning your poppies would have oozed out their latex (the opium), which would have dried, changing from an initial pale creamy gloop to darker, browner more solid little lumps. You would scrape these off with a knife and there would be your opium. This could be smoked (vaporised that is) raw, or it could be refined first.
