papaver orientalis 'Royal Wedding' 2015

The first white poppies have opened in our garden. I photographed this variety in a public garden a few years ago and then Ray bought a plant for us. I think it's been photographed with every camera I've owned. Lots of fat buds this year.

I love this plant and the picture you took shows its beauty perfectly.

[Molly]

A beautiful plant. I'd no idea what it was called before reading your title.

[Pat Knowles]

How the centres stand out Hazel........the papery petals look like an organza dress so I can see where the title comes from.

[Pyrrhula]

They are indeed very beautiful and great to take a photograph off. ( Like this one)
