09 Summer - Poppies

Here are several photographs of poppies. The pink ones are Shirley poppies, which are about two-feet tall with flowers the size of your palm. The others are cabbage poppies and grew to three feet or more, with flowers the size of your hands cupped together to catch water.

I think they have done very well this year, because it has been sunny and warm much of this spring and summer.
