(I've been trying to find out legality in VIC, and could only see that they were determined a noxious weed). Thank you, Apologies, with a slightly different search I found: "It is illegal to take, use, sell or grow poppies without a licence from the Victorian Government. Illegal possession of poppy plant parts or substances derived from poppies is a criminal offence and attracts heavy penalties." I've always seen poppies growing around, and thought it was fine....Guess I should remove the one's from my front yard lol.

A judge might throw out a case of your nana growing a few heirloom cottage flowers, but I'd hate to see anyone get themselves in trouble.

Slocombe Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 Number 4 doesn't even look like a poppy flower to my inexpert eye. 6 hours ago, Glaukus said: I know a lot of people grow them ornamentally, but yes, it is illegal.

I think keeping up appearances has a lot of benefits and if you listen to your nana she will probably agree. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bees have a hard time penetrating the thick dense petals though. They're "rumoured" to be strong too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
