Poppy



Beginning this year in spring I sowed poppy-seeds.
Lots...
My dream was to have a small poppy-field in my garden.
I sowed them in containers and in the bare ground.
The ones in the containers did come up, however hungry snails or slugs were happy with a fresh poppy-salad.
When I looked one day to see how the poppy's were doing
...not one poppy-plant was left.
The ones in the open ground... I did not see any of them grow up.

To my surprise there came some poppy-plants between the tiles and stones of my terrace.
I did not plant nor sowed them there.
And these poppy's are now richly blossoming!
