I have Shirley Poppies growing in my garden, Papaver rhoeas, derived from the wild European poppies.
The buds start out curled downward. They will straighten when they are ready to bloom.
The poppies are very attractive to bees.
I have three shades of pink: light,
middle,
and darker.
They are not easy to bring into the house. They stems have to be singed with a match before putting into water.
I will have plenty of seeds for scattering next fall.
