I wish I could grow poppies. They are a very beautiful flower, always have been.
@toronto_Georgia They are beautiful. Fortunately, it is not illegal to grow opium poppies here, although they merchants often limit the number of seeds you can purchase. But once you have them, if you're an avid gardener (moi) you have them forever.
