they are annuals, so you need to be sure to collect seeds.

I love the sweet scents wafting in the breeze. I stop to admire the vibrant colors of all living things. And people think me odd. Then ODD I am!!!

Oriental poppies are perennials. California poppies, shirley poppies, and several others are annuals and usually reseed quite well. They all bloom in early to mid spring, prefer full sun and well draining soil. Oriental poppies will usually go dormant in the heat of summer and leave a gap in your garden, so try to plant them where the gaps will be filled by other nearby plants. They also require a period of cold temps to bloom (your NC winter will do the trick), and small plants, cuttings, etc. may take a year or more to bloom.
