(+1 in a note) I got a mixture of California Poppy seeds that I planted in my raised bed garden back in 2013. One day I visited my flowers and found this stunning blossom...what a beauty! I have since gotten seeds of many other colors and hopefully I will see some of them too one day...cross your fingers! :)

51/366: Creamy California Poppy

If you think of a California Poppy, the image of a brilliantly orange flower should pop into your head. However, did you know that they come in other colors too?! When I planted my raised bed garden a couple of years ago, I got an enormous mix of poppy seeds, which included normal California poppies and some other types as well. Only one other type appeared, but what a gorgeous plant it was!! And how perfect that the first bloom opened on the Fourth of July!! This is a White Linen California Poppy, and I'm happy to say that it came back last year, and I I'm looking forward to more lovely blossoms this year too! (By the way, if you would like to order seeds, I was very pleased by the offerings from the Vermont Wildflower Farm .)
