Shot these dead poppy heads this morning on my phone. If had been a more conscientious gardener I would have removed them weeks ago, but I’m glad I didn’t get round to it. They looked great with the winter sun pouring through them, as if they were lit!
Papaver somniferum (Opium poppy) lit by the morning winter sun.
thats an excellent photo.
Thanks. I nearly walked past it too
beautiful!
Thanks Beth
I love seed heads. They’re architectural beauties of nature.
Thank heavens for untidy gardens I say
… needless to say I really like it !
They probably only caught my eye in the first place because they needed cutting off! Glad I didn’t. Thanks for the kind words
