Poppy: “Lauren’s Grape"


So I had NO idea that poppies came in purple, and when I saw these organic poppy starts at the nursery, I snagged three of these ones grown by the local organic folks at Sunseed Farm ones in a hurry, and they are just kicking off the blooms here in July, after our Oriental poppies have finished up for the season. NOICE!, as my husband would say....


PS - Remember that organics aren't just in what you eat, but everything you grow. A whole lot of nurseries out there, including most of the gunk sold at big box and chains, are NOT selling organic or sustainably grown ornamentals, so unless it says on the label it's neonic-free, you're risking the health of our pollinator populations by planting it. Hey, the more you know...
