Happy Mother's Day to all you moms out there! Enjoy your special day. These photos are from my favorite plant, the Matilija Poppy. It grows like a weed, and hardly needs any water, just a lot of sun. Perfect for southern California. Wishing everyone a sunny day.

Beautiful pictures! I have never seen the Matilija Poppy before, but it sounds like it might like Nevada. I am going to ask about it at my local nursery.
Alea-
I'll bet it would like Nevada. These flowers are big- about 5 inches across. And the plant is huge- it gets to 6 or 8 feet wide within a few months. It's incredible. The Latin name is Romneya Coulteri.
If you ever get seeds from your poppies, I'd love to trade sometime! Beautiful pictures--thanks for sharing!
ANGELA! LOVE the photos of the poppies. They're gorgeous!
I viewed these as my Mothers Day flowers!
