You
might remember that I acquired a lot of poppy seeds via one of the
members of the garden club last fall and scattered them around the
old burn pile spot. They have been nothing short of spectacular for
the last couple of weeks though my snake bite kept me indoors for the
first three or four days after the 'incident'. Towards the end of
last week Marc took me for a couple of joyrides in the antique
wheelchair across the lawn so that I could enjoy them. Now armed
with crutches, I can get out there by myself and do though I don't
always pick the best time of day for pictures. Anyway, here's a
little photo essay of the poppies.
how VERY pretty! the 2nd photo is my favorite! gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely LOVE! I want to do this at my house!
ReplyDeleteI love poppies - they are so vibrant yet delicate. My neighbour grows a lot but they won't be flowering for another month or so over here.
ReplyDeleteFab photos!
They're lovely. You'll have a nice green hillock when the blooms are done.
ReplyDeleteAmazing! Lovely!
ReplyDeleteThank-you.
Spectacular! This from "scattering them around the old burn pile spot?"
ReplyDeleteThat must be great soil...the results are picture perfect!
I tried to have poppies for years but the darn ants always stole the seeds. Yes, I tried starting them first but I have a brown thumb.
ReplyDeleteWow!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteNow, I want some too. What type are they?
They are just so perfect!
ReplyDeletePerfect poppies! Glad to hear you are recovering nicely.
