Last year I purchased a potted Poppy plant that, despite my best efforts, proceeded to dwindle and die. At least it looked to be dead. I could sense a small spark of life in it though, so I transplanted it into a spot out back. Winter came and I forgot about it until this spring when I was surprised by this poppy bloom. It almost seems grateful that I saved it. I can see kind of a happy face on it.
Very nice! My Spousal Unit loves oriental poppies...when they're in bloom. Every year at some point when the greens would sprout up he'd think they were weeds and spray them when I wasn't looking. I swear we had that conversation every year for about 5 years.
I've decided he only likes them in
other people's yards.
