The Oriental Poppies in my yard opened up today and I thought I would share:

GOOOORRRR-geous!! I love poppies. We have a few California Poppies -- which are sweet -- but the Orientals are awesome! Thanks for sharing!

they are soooo pretty, iv'e never really seen a lot of poppy's, i didn't know how lovely they were, i can't plant anything until i femce off my side garden though because anassa eats them and runs off with the empty pots, she already ate my chilli plant, my basil, my beautiful ground cover and a red fern


i love the tree's too, it almost looks like a partial wild garden, i love that.

Hi all, I've just had a thought. I expect you all already know this but don't forget that Lillies are poisenous to cats

Thanks everyone. I'm glad you are enjoying them. Since you are, maybe I will put up another thread with some of the peonies. We just bought this house in Decenber from two retiring botany professors. The yard is absolutely gorgeous and every day I find something new blooming!

Since I'm not 100% sure yet what are in all my gardens, Abby only goes out on a leash and it HEAVILY supervised! Thanks for the warning though.
