A relatively small family, the poppies are always a delight to see in the garden. These are some of the first seeds a child will grow - I remember giving California Poppy seed heads to my own children. Our wild poppies, although smaller, are quite a sight when they appear in road verges and fields.
HOMESURREY'S WILDFLOWERING PROJECT is a community-led initiative, aiming to build a partnership that enables wildflowering in the county as well as promoting and celebrating the boroughs/districts diverse environments. Do take the time to find out more about the project and if you can get involved, even in a small way, you will make a difference.
