We are told that Oriental Poppies can't be transplanted successfully and I say "Phooey!"

There are many plants that we've been told you cannot transplant and I have went ahead and done it. Not because I am a rebel gardener but because I had to move them for one reason or another and rather than not even try I did my best to transplant them.

And you know what? They lived. Sure, they went into shock and lost their leaves but within weeks they were sprouting new growth and are growing in their new spot in the garden beds just fine!

The moral of the story is don't be afraid to try something even if others say it is impossible.

So this video is how I transplanted a beautiful Orential Poppy so I could save it from the gophers.

Here is how I organize my garden planning, a Garden Journal: [ Ссылка ]

*I garden in zone 8 but I face the challenge of being surrounded by evergreens (I live in the mountains) that cast a lot of shade. Plus we get very cool nights even in summer. Many lower zones will actually get blooms long before I do.
