I threw down some wildflower seeds this spring in the garden and most of the seeds never sprouted, but I had some poppy seeds that did! They are so pretty! I have always loved the red ones but now that I have pink and white I love them just as much.

Sadly our wind gets a little too strong for these delicate flowers and they lose all their petels.

Winnie, I have had even more start to open. I am so happy my flowers are staying alive. We have been warm but starting next week we will start to cool off.

Ohhh Krista, those are beautiful summer blooms!! I love that rich bright color which stands out when many flowers are struggling to keep alive in this brutal heat.

We have frilly, ruffled pink poppies! I love them! If you would like some seed heads, let me know. I’m trying to collect them all. They just need to be scattered end of September/early October

Those are really pretty! I'll have to look into them and see if they'll do well here.

I love how 'my' poppies just sort of pop up willy-nilly in my Iris patch and my garden..
My all time favorites are the orange "California' poppies... Gee, I wonder why? heeheehee!

Poppies are pretty. You will have lots of seed you can collect and save.
