| I have a 2 1/2 year old Horned Poppy that has spread to almost 3 feet wide with multiple stems but has never bloomed. Is this normal and when should I start to see buds if it is going to bloom this year? |

| They are reliable bloomers but may be slow to reach maturity and bloom the first time. I think the foliage is attractive even without a bloom. For me the bloom is spread out over the season and not a lot at one time. I find the seed pods attractive and would probably get more bloom if I removed them. Al |

| A seek after posting this question, my Glaucium / Horned Poppy is forming flower buds. Most poppies bloom here in March and april, so I assumed these would too if they were going to bloom. Now. is there anyway to divide this multi-stem plant? It appears that the stems meet well above the soil line and do not have any roots. My book only mentions propagation by seed. |
