Do we even have poppies in the U.S.?
ReplyDeleteSeveral years ago I saw “coquelicots” in Virginia, but not as plenty as in France.
DeleteYes U.S. has many poppies! The California yellow-orange grow wild and this year in particular are covering the hills (only from pictures I haven't been there this year!) after all the rain. Easy to grow, they need at least 6 hours of sunshine! They are so delicate and beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Mary and chm!
