Edit: its june now and the flowers are starting to bloom. I sowed the seeds too late and wayy too close together. The flowers are small and the plants did not reach its full potential. My mistake. However ALOT made it to flower and will hopefuly make enough seed to come back next year. They are very vigoruous and drought tolerant. ### ⭐ Never sprouted!! *by B***E on October 24, 2025* These seeds suck! Never sprouted and planted in multiple places including pots. Read the directions did exactly what it asked. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Germination Success rate *by R***. on April 6, 2014* While this review is preliminary, I thought I would let others know that upon receipt of the seeds I planted 12 seeds as instructed to test the percentage of germination rate. ALL 12 seeds germinated within one week and are about 1 inch tall after one week. I realize this is not a full review of the finished products but, I thought it important to let others know that buying seeds from Earthcare Seeds is an excellent investment. The packaging was done with care & concern for safe arrival of the seeds. An excellent germination rate definitely shows me that they sell a very good product. I highly recommend purchasing from Earthcare Seeds. As a side note, I also bought similar seeds from a few other companies available on Amazon and to my surprise, I was informed after the sale that the seeds are shipped on a slow boat from China. It's already been one month and the shipping info still states arrival time will be some time in May. I recommend buyers take that particular point in to account. The other seeds were less expensive but, shipping time is too long of a wait to see what quality & condition they will arrive in seeing as they are travelling on 'a slow boat from China'. Buyer beware! Stick with Earthcare Seeds or at least another American company. Who knows what condition the seeds will endure in the cargo hold of a ship all the way from China !!! I certainly learned my lesson and will stick to reliable sources such as American-based Earthcare Seeds. ## Frequently Bought Together - Earthcare Seeds Giant Poppy 250 Seeds (Papaver Somniferum Giganteum) Non GMO - Heirloom - Giant Red Poppy Papaver Somniferum Premium Seeds for Planting Packet - Giant Purple Poppy Papaver Somniferum Premium Seeds for Planting Packet --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/7638765-giant-poppy-250-seeds-papaver-somniferum-giganteum-non-gmo-heirloom](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/7638765-giant-poppy-250-seeds-papaver-somniferum-giganteum-non-gmo-heirloom) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-09-29*
