    The rosehip is the round seed case left after the rose has bloomed.
    That could be a poppy, but they don't grow well in my yard so I can't say for sure.

    I don't think it's a poppy either. It looks like some sort of small-bloomed rose, but would like a shot of the leaves to make certain.

    I think Droopy is right it sure looks like a rose as the bud beside the blooms looks like a rose bud that hasn't started opening yet.

    I plump for it being a rose too Poppy but would also like to see the leaves to be absolutely sure.

    Well spotted, glendann. I didn't even see that there. You've got keen eyes.

    Definately a rose of some sort. I'm no good at roses, but hopefully somebody will manage to ID it for you.
