The first poppy came out this morning! Of course it was raining, so I waded through the sopping grass to get over to the poppy garden and take a picture or two.


I wish I'd had the camera out a bit later, when a finch came by to check out the poppies, and sat on one of the buds for a while. When it stops raining, I should scrub out the birdbath and get it into the garden.

I want to grow poppies this year spontaniously with all types of lavender......this would be my landscaping.....we live in sandy soil .... wooded area..quite a bit of son......thank you,,diane ashcraft
