Royal Purple






More from the rosebed...

At the bottom end of the rosebed (closer to the river) are some of the most unusual poppies I've ever seen. These fringed purple Papaveraceae are tall, noble, and fleeting. Sounds enigmatic and quite apropos for this garden.

Here are photos from the same evening, with poppies at different stages.
