					<description><![CDATA[Nice!  If I put them in the ground, I&#039;d fear pulling them thinking they were weeds - they look like prickly bushes!

These are very tall.  I have them in a raised bed (so 12 inches off the ground or so) and they&#039;re probably 3 feet tall.  

I don&#039;t cut mine, either.  They do really well in dry soil so I leave them alone &amp; enjoy them where they are, too.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Growing up we used to have poppies in my great-grandmother&#039;s garden - they are spectacular and grow to be surprisingly tall - as I recall - as tall as peony bushes or so; but very different leaves.

Do you know if they keep well as cut flowers? We never cut them - just left them blooming in the yard - they were so spectacular.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Thanks, Cao - they just opened up this morning - I was expecting them next week, maybe - the buds are big but didn&#039;t give any hint that they would open overnight!

These are huge poppies, not wild - the small bud on the right is as big as a golf ball.  The large poppy in the center - probably the diameter of a softball.]]></description>
