Today's Flower

This was one of the poppies I had growing at the other house, I did transfer them over to this house, but I am not sure if they took? We'll see in the spring of 2010.

What a lovely color, Gill! God's creations are always the most amazing.

I've not tried planting any poppies here on the Farmstead ~ perhaps I should give some a try come spring time.

Good week for you, dear!

Poppies are such alluring flowers; their colours, frills and soft, papery petals. I thought they were all annuals and had to be sown. I used to have poppies in my garden. Here I have not seen them for a long time. I hope you are successful transplanting those pretty poppies.

I hope they did transplant for you! They don't last long in the garden, but when they are blooming they are show stoppers.

I've never seen one quite like that. Sure hope it makes it through the winter to grow this spring at your new house.

I love these big red poppies. We saw them at the Goathland railway station on the North York Moors Railway. I miss Yorkshire and the British countryside. I have found that blogs originating from Britain help to keep me up to date.
