    Is the thin leaf plant a poppy? It is growing among my strawberries.

    Yes I'd say it's a poppy too Tina. It looks just like the Californian poppies I grow here in the UK.

    I have yellow and orange ones in my garden Tina. Thye're pretty things aren't they? However, they can become rather invasive. If you don't want lots of them deadhead before they get a chance to self seed.
