First Oriental Poppy in flower

Great shot. They are such beauties. This one must be well established now, having so many blooms coming.

You're well ahead there,beautiful.The oriental poppy yearly show is one of my favorites:-)

lovely. I love the crinkly petals, like tissue paper. then when they open fully, the bees come along and get covered with the dark pollen

it is a beautiful plant, even if the flowers don't last long. This plant has been in for over three years now, Gt.

I'm waiting for 'Patty's Plum' to reappear now - and hope she obliges on my open days!!!

reminds me of silk taffeta. Mine are still in very tight bud. fingers crossed for patty :o)

She has several buds, so it looks hopeful. :-)
