It looks so pretty and full, the poppies are just beautiful. The front garden/ lawn area is my focus for this month, it's hard to make it look cosy as it's open to the street but I'll do what I can!
I have a few poppies out the front - the self seeded alarmingly last year so I had loads aout and hope to keep them under control by dead heading most of them. Maybe I can harvest some of the seeds and plant them in a container. Poppies are so cheerful, after all. Yours look really lovely. xx
The whole front is gravel as DB got fed up of mowing. We try to keep paths clear of plants. Back is the same but red gravel. At least harvesting the seeds means they are free.

ReplyDeleteIt all helps the creatures. I am still trying to get more late autumn plants in to give the bees a final boost for winter.

Both these big poppies and the opium style poppies produce large amounts of seed which I gather to use in bread and cakes.
DeleteSo colourful, and I love the gravel paths, sets the plants off nicely. I'd never have thought of using the seeds for baking, how silly of me!

ReplyDeleteYour poppies are wonderful. I love the pop of brilliant colour.

You have a beautiful garden, all your hard work pays off. The poppies are so petty.
