A cherry red oriental poppy just opened. Hope it holds up awhile in the rain.
Lovely, mine will be a few days yet unlike my poached egg plant! :)

first hardy geranium- soon the borders will be bursting with colour.

More of these lovelies coming along.
Sorry no pics but my ceanothus is looking wonderful and my first alliums are out. :D
Strangely, that poppy germinated itself right beside a tiny rose of the exact same shade of cherry red.
I couldn't have matched them better myself if I'd tried.
It made me think it might be fun to propagate a whole eye-popping bed of them together.
