    I received some free wild flower seeds from a place we toured and this beautiful pink poppy was in what had sprouted...along with some other flowers...

    Aren't those just the prettiest things? I guess the fact that they were free just doubles the enjoyment.
    Boy Sherry, you really lucked-out with that bunch of seeds.

    I used to have poppys growing in my grass at the last place I lived...they spread so I am hoping that they stay in the flower bed....but with all the birds around, I might end up with it again. I will try and deadhead before the birds get to them...Sherry
