Copycat Poppy.!

One of the lovely poppies that Carole kindly gave me,courtesy of Amy.Lovely .:o).They are planted underneath two 'Cliff Richard' roses,and almost identical colour,so it appears as though I have a continuation of flowers from base to the top...

Pity I didn't move the "pot feet" from the path ! Had to move the pot when it was really windy,and forgot about these...Must remember to check the background in future.Lol.

Lol,Lou,it does look a bit like that...it was the only one that had just opened fully,as the petals drop after a couple of days..The buds are huge,and seem to pull the stem down a bit.I have had to stake them too,or else they would be down on the floor.Lots more to come,I'm glad to say.
Maybe,Sandra..lol.Its a good"doer" and is disease resistant,so don't have any problems with it at all.
