Papery Pink Poppy

Do you like the name for this flower? I hoped you might, as I made it up! Another surprise flower in a different rewilded patch, it seems to resemble a poppy in its fragility and the type of bud, so I am making an assumption that this is what it is. The reason I make up names is that in order to have unique titles for my posts, I have to give the flowers unique titles. I searched through the list of flowers included in my wildflower mixes and couldn’t find one that resembled this, so perhaps it was a total volunteer! I loved the delicate pink crinkles on this and hope that more will appear next year. Let me know if you have a different name for this lovely thing. See you tomorrow, friends. Enjoy your day.

  1. I believe you are right, Ellie. It is a poppy, a wild poppy! It has a familial resemblance, doesnt it? With the same good bones, but a more delicate complexion, one can xertainly see a beauty in the making. Such a delight to be presented with the ‘real deal’, instead of the sophisticated domesticated varities. Thank you, Ellie.

  2. It is beautiful Ellie. And I think it fits its name lovely. I’m amazed at the design on the petals. And of course I love the center. Thanks again for sharing hope you have a great day.
