Poppy Patch

These beautiful poppies, along with the German bearded iri, and mound of catmint, grace the middle of the veggie patch, and sit under the pear tree, which, incidently, has yet to fruit. Perhaps I should encourage the partridge to sit in it, to warm and encourage during those early summer frosts that have turned into a perennial event! Tomorrow, one or two of these exquisite ladies will have dropped a petal or two, and I would have been sad to have, once again, missed the day, when they were all in their full regalia...et voila!
