The garden is just exploding with flowers. Everything seems to be blooming early this year and very abundantly, too.
Pink peonies, which were tightly closed buds yesterday, were in full flower today (it was warm last night and that may have helped).
The inside of a perennial poppy. The pollen coating the stamens is purplish-black in color—it looks like velvet.
A unopened poppy with the petals tightly furled inside. I bought this variety last year and it didn't get a chance to flower so I'm not sure what it's going to look like. Pink for sure but it looks like a darker raspberry color at the base. Can't wait to see it . . . maybe tomorrow.
