4. Watering- you want to wanter you newly planted matilija poppy 1x per week or maybe even 2x if the soil is sandy and/or during the summer months. Not more than that or it will rot out. Keep up the weekly watering for through the first summer into winter. Then drop the watering down to 1x per month. That will keep things looking better and flowering longer.

Romneya coulteri...no relation to either Ann or Mitt, is a rare California endemic, highly prized by gardeners who are lucky enough to be able to grow it. Dry soil and full sun are the keys to success. I admit to killing fifteen, now that the statute of limitations for involuntary plant slaughter has passed, before achieving success. When happy, romneya spreads well via underground rhizomes. The 4-6' tall silver stalks are adorned by silver foliage and topped in late spring with large crepe paper-like white flowers, highlighted by yellow central stamens. Do not disturb the roots when planting matilija poppy. Like cultivation, propagation of Romneya coulteri is very difficult, so our supply of these seed-grown plants is limited.
i am sorry it took you so long to find Majilija poppies in the nursery! Best to leave them in the container until late fall when the weather cools. Depending on where you are, those black plastic pots heat up quickly in the summer sunlight but the plants are best in full sun. Water a couple of times each week, filling the pots to the top twice. Water should run otu the bottom of the pots each time you water (that goes for all container plants). When you are ready to plant, be sure to put them where there is ALOT of room and follow my plantnig directions. Good luck!
Romneya (/ˈrɒmniə/)[1] is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the poppy family (Papaveraceae). There are two species in genus Romneya, which was named for Irish astronomer John Thomas Romney Robinson.[2] They are known commonly as Matilija poppies (/məˈtɪlɪhɑː/ mə-TIL-i-hah) or tree poppies and are native to California and northern Mexico.
A. The matilija poppy, Romnea coulteri, with its huge white blossom and yellow center is one of our showiest and easiest-to-grow water-wise plants. Because of the striking appearance of its flowers, it is also referred to as the fried egg plant.
In normal water years, Matilija poppy receives enough rainfall to take plants through the summer with no help at all. If rains fail, they will still grow and bloom without summer water, but the flowers will be smaller and plants will go dormant more quickly.
The Matilija poppy was named for Chief Matilija of the Chumash tribe that inhabited the area for thousands of years. However, many plants are named after the person who scientifically discovered them.
On Thursday, May 23, the City of Ventura Public Works Department was notified by an anonymous caller that plants growing on the east side of Kimball Park were the type of poppy used in the production of opium drugs, most notably heroin.
The department notified the Ventura Resident Office of the Drug Enforcement Administration, who in turn reached out to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service as well as to DEA botanists and chemists to determine if the plants were Papaver somniferum, also known as opium or breadseed poppy. 59ce067264
