A closer look at the rampaging (but beautiful) poppy whose roots keep spreading along the border. Can anyone name it for me please?

Want some, Dorjac? They are just coming into bloom again, everyone! Did those slips grow Mariek? If not I'll send you some with better roots, and do you still want some, stickitoffee? If anyone wants some roots later just shout as I am going to dig a lot out!
