poppies :3
Woot!! My poppies have sprouted!!! About a week ago I planted a patch of Oriental Red and California poppies and as usual didnt expect them to ever do anything other than well,nothing.But they have sprouted!! :3 For all the work I did to get that spot ready(hacking out the dead grass,digging up rocks and roots and burying the barrier to try and keep them contained IF they grew) not to mention my sunburn,they had better do something!! They should flower in late summer/early fall and I hope both types sprouted since they have identical foliage and I cant tell which kind Im looking at(possibly the Calis?) I also have cactus seeds I need to get started and Im going to harvest some iris seed pods at school because Im on a growing stuff kick.I tried the iris' last year but I waited to long to plant them and the seeds werent any good anymore.I'll be sure to get them in the ground right away this time instead of waiting about a year.
anyways,these are what the poppies will look like:
oriental reds
californias
