And remember that there are usually hundreds if not thousands of seed in a packet! We've all been there - sow the whole packet and end up with more poppies than you can shake a stick at!
Refold the foil inner packet tightly and keep the remainder in a tupperware or a tin, somewhere dry, and they will be fine for next year (and prob the year after - although the success rate diminishes over time)
