Poppy and bee 7 June


Poppy and bee 7 June (papaver)

Last night the bud just showed the very smallest hint of colour at its tip. This morning it had exploded (wonder if it would be audible if one was standing next to it?). Don't know the name of this poppy - have tried to get more but they all seem to be singles. They go well with the alliums and we cut them down ruthlessly when they've finished flowering - allowing other perennials to take over.
