Planting spring-blooming annuals intermixed with Chionodoxa?

Back in October I planted a section of a bed with spring-blooming Chionodoxa bulbs. I just purchased some beautiful (annual) Shirley Poppy seeds that I'm looking for a place for and I'm wondering how that bed would be for them. I know it's fairly common and accepted to have summer-blooming flowers planted intermingled with spring-blooming bulbs, since the flowers and foliage of the bulbs are fading just as the summer bloomers are coming into their own. But poppy is a spring bloomer and I'm concerned that the seedlings would want to be feeding at the same time as the Chionodoxa and that each might suffer from the competition. Any thoughts?
