That Chaste tree is stunning, Maggie! How long ago did you plant it?
Bobert,
Suggest you harvest at least one seedhead of the poppies to toss out in late winter. It will exend the bloom season next year. I'd also like to know if any of the others that bloom are the double pink/peach. I saved seed but didn't sow them, and don't know if they will be viable next year. There is a small section of side yard on the east side of the house that may get enough sun for poppies, and I intend to try.
Any of the rest of you want poppy seeds before the goldfinches get them all? (poppy somnifersomethingorother)
