    1. They're not 'papaver' poppies like the field or opium poppies but Welsh poppies, meconopsis cambrica. Most of them are bright yellow but I have just one clump of these orange ones. I'm hoping I can get them to seed and spread.

  2. We have yellow poppies. They're lovely and delicate, aren't they. I've seen a number of dopey, sick looking bees in our garden. Hope they're ok.
