Miss Janey's Matilija poppy (Romneya coulteri) is blooming. Miss J adores this California natave: the tall stems (over 6 feet tall), the silver green foliage, the huge fried egg bloom. What a stunning plant.

It absolutely looks like a fried egg. I have never seen a white poppy before. Really pretty.
I want to pinch that flower.
Ooooooo pretty!
Alas, Ms. Chilly has a black thumb.
the flower looks like what it makes you feel inside!
And the fishscale sidewalk is awesome. :)
So gorgeous!
I *love* poppies, but we've never seen the likes of those here.
