My favorite flower is a poppy.  I love the colors..

I love the weird leaves that seem prickly, but aren’t.

Have you ever seen the poppy pod up-close?

It looks pretty cool, green with a funny red and purple.

See the “funny hairs”?

I love how the leaves and stems look like they could take on a

tornado.. and the flowers seem so fragile.

Here’s one that is about to open.

Don’t you love them?    I do.. 🙂
