Forty years ago when we bought our house and property and planted our first garden, red poppies unexpectedly also came up. We loved the splash of brilliant red they gave and so every year after the veggies I planted show themselves and I begin weeding the garden, I always make sure that I don’t pull up any of the young poppy sprouts. As a result, even after all those decades we still have poppies in our garden.
If you go to davidmarchant2.ca and click on “Paintings” on top of this page you can see an older painting of our garden that shows the poppies.
Heeee :)
