Red Poppys
This was taken a few years ago and is a poppy that was growing in the back garden
I might have to come to your neighborhood to steal seed heads! A gardener friend gave me some many years ago that were a lovely soft pink, but less and less of them reseed every year. I'm pretty sure there won't be any next year, something about the soil in our yard we have now that they don't like would be my guess.
