They really are colourful Spritzhenry. I can't understand why I don't grow them any more. I'll have to do it next year. Acyually I used to sew them in the autumn. Have you tried them like that ?

Your ,Poppies wont germinate until next autumn or spring. Welsh Poppies seds need to be overwintered outdoors,

Hi Chris, no i can't say that i have, but now i've said that i have proberly jinxed myself. do you dead head regually? dead flowers/folliege can be a common cause of mildew, i think you can get treatments as well. hope you manage to sort it out Chris.

Thanks for this wonderful Blog and the beautiful photos of nature doing its superb job. Its sad that a lot of our wild flowers are disappearing, but there is also some positive work going on in the background as well to revert to organic farming and the need to protect our countryside as well. Lets hope the positive message continues to spread and farmers pick up the messages. In a sense we are all to blame because we want cheap and plentiful supplies of food and intensive farming methods are used to meet the demand which means that wildlife and natural fauna are being damaged and lost.

Glad to have been of assistance Gardengnome .

Sorry to say it is true, but part of their beauty is in their transience. I believe some new varieties are now available but very expensive, which do last longer, expect it would be advisable to wait till next Spring, when they will be more widely available.Can't n ame any Nursery where they are available now.

Thank you all for liking this view. I only took it to put in a blog I wrote about wild flowers. It's the view you get from the old church in the other photo.

Is it really on Friday ? I can't believe it's gone so quickly.

Many kids don't know that milk comes from cows either. Perhaps there ought to be a kid-oogle website to answer things like this!

That's right Mike. I'll have to put them all together like a story in a blog, but it will be a while before that I think. Although It's surprising how quickly the time goes.
