Since I can't seem to post on the drug gardening community I'll drop this here. Really digging the petal shapes on this one.

It's beautiful even when you're not considering it's use

Right? The flower and the happy bees collecting pollen make it worthwhile alone :)

Poppies make such elaborate flowers. They're right up there with passionfruit.

I love passionfruit flowers, got a passiflora vine indoors which flowers occasionally. Haven't yet tried making any kind of tea although I know people say it's supposed to be calming

I thought opium poppies were pink & purple coloured?

The somniferum variety comes in many different colours, I believe typically the pink and purple varieties are well known to be potent. Some others are not so potent.
