Author Content PeggieK Claremore, OK (Zone 6a) May 22, 2007 10:03 AM Post #3523167 I was at a local garden center here the other day and asked for the oriental or perennial poppies. The man at the center told me they didn't carry them because they wouldn't do well in this area. IS THAT TRUE ??????? Come to think of it, I haven't seen any in anyone's gardens. But then, I've just recently become aware of them here on DG. So if I had seen them, maybe I didn't notice so much. Does anyone in zone 6 grow them ? If so, which ones are best performers? Thanks
