Saving poppy seed is easy: each bloom produces a single pod full of seeds. Let the pods dry on the plant, then carefully cut the stems and shake the seeds onto a plate or into bag (a good job for kids). Store in a cool spot indoors and plant seeds in the fall. Or just leave the poppies and seed heads in place and let them reseed on their own.
