such beautiful flowers everyone! Wish I had the climate for more tropical plants here, but alas I will have to do with whatever you all share.

I love poppies! I have a huge oriental poppy plant that I've had for years and last year I was able to get some california poppies growing. Not sure if those will come back or reseeded but hope to see soon (Okay, not too soon, in a few months!). Dee, would love some of those seeds if you get any!

ddsack...I think you're going to be VERY popular! If there's any chance these will grow in zone 3 or 4, I'd be very interested in seeds. PM on the way. Thanks!

When are poppy seeds sown? Fall or spring? What team raptures do they like?
