The first poppy in my garden decided to pop open. I only have one blossom, but it is a beauty. I went to the local garden center on Mothers Day and wandered around taking photos of flowers, and found more poppies there.

the irises are gorgeous everywhere too !! I love spring flowers
Happy Memorial Day weekend - I hope it is lovely wherever you are.
Gorgesous poppy shots, Phyllis. That third one is my favourite and love the different shapes and textures from the wide open poppy with the gorgeous stamens fanning out and the tight, furry bud just starting to burst open and the way the poppy on the right creates balance to the composition. Beautiful! Poppies are really stunning flowers and the centre of the fourth one is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI also love poppy seed cake, do you?!
Enjoy the rest of your Memorial Day weekend.
