I've been wanting to photograph my poppies but it's been too windy, so today I brought some inside.
It amazes me that these beautiful flowers bloom from the end of Autumn through until part way through Summer.
@onewing These are all self sown Babs. They start appearing between the end of March and early April, which I find strange because that is also when they start in the Northern Hemisphere. I usually have a flower by Anzac Day. My brother in law gave us seeds several years ago, which we just scattered in the garden. These ones are quite tough but I struggle with Iceland poppies.
