Lovely, and the Alchimelia sets it off beautifully

Yes it certainly does, it does get a bit heavy after all the rain, droops dreadfully, but then stands up again so suppose that is ok. We have not had that much to spoil it yet!

Oh yes, that's a lovely combo!

I am liking it too! it is lovely, the rain damaged the poppy a little, it is a very heavy flower head and flops after rain, will have to be better organised next year and get it a plant support - using canes at the moment to keep her propped up. lol.

I agree with Cinderella, that paleish green of the Alchimelia's foliage makes the poppy stand out really well against it. Which pink one is it?

I have no idea which one it is Jennyfer, just bought it as a pink poppy, think at a village hall sale of plants. lol.

I love these poppies. I have some in my border but while we were on holiday they all fell over onto the ground.I should have staked them. You have a lovely garden Olive.

Thank you Rose, yes that is a major problem with poppies, I forgot to stake these and they are a bit floppy, other plants are now holding them in place, must get my act together for next year.
