When to plant iceland poppy

Iceland poppy is a short-lived perennial best in cool climates and often grown as an annual where summers are warm. Iowa State describes a long bloom from spring into early summer on a roughly 12-inch foliage mound; NCSU notes that fall sowings of Iceland poppy produce flowers the following spring. It needs well-drained soil and resents being disturbed once established.

Iceland Poppy is timed by season rather than your frost dates, so the planting calendar does not generate ZIP-specific dates for it. Check the cited sources below to fine-tune for your area.
