I am trying to figure out what the name of this flower is...it is not a poppy. It has dense, frilled edged petals. I will post the front view tomorrow so you can tell me what the name of the flower is. These flowers grow on my neighbor's parking strip and they are gorgeous.
From the bottom it looks like a Tulip to me- probably one of those fancy hybrids they've come up with in the last few years. But I guess it's past Tulip season by now, isn't it? Beautiful shot!
