    giant red poppies

    giant red poppies

    Poppies are bursting in my garden, they’re as big as a softball. Chickeymonkey said “it looks like there’s a piece of gum inside.” but they’re so bright red, my camera gets completely confused about what to focus on when I try to get a pic of that “gum”.

    Several more photos of random nature-y goodness coming up over the next few days while I’m painting (on cam) in the studio. Enjoy!

    I haven’t ever seen that variety before. Which reminds me, that I want to get some California poppie seeds…for the garden.

    Renee – I am loving these, but their foliage is big and broad and they need a bigger space. I’m going to have to give them their own island or something – and gate it so they’re not mistaken for prickly bushes!

    Pretty! I love poppies and it’s nice cause, well, I live in Flanders so there’s plenty of poppies around. Lovely picture though! My boyfriend would be sooo jealous of your garden!
