Welsh Poppy. Meconopsis cambrica


The bane of my garden!

Oh I love them, never a problem here they just seed around gently and
mingle with the other plants.


They seed vigorously here, among plants including veg, in cracks and paths.
I do think they're bonny but they're very difficult to uproot. Even the hens
don't eat them! I don't mind bigger poppies, the annual ones, because they
can easily be pulled out after flowering. It's just the darned Welsh ones
:-( Perhaps you don't grow veg. Our garden is small and I have to make full
use of every part.
