This used to be a common sight on Plaskett Ridge Road — poppies, lots of poppies. Today, there are few left due to human disruption. I spread poppy seeds in two areas each fall/winter before a rain, but give them no supplemental water. Next year, I will add a third area. They are filling in nicely, don’t you think? This is my second year. I this new area this year. My first year was just the orchard area. (Last photo) I intend to continue this practice for as long as I can.
Sorry, Sunday got away from me and I almost forgot this.

Poppies on green grass and hills is one of my favorite things. Good job spreading the joy Kate! Did you see Kodi's fabulous shot of massive poppies on the hillside all the way to the ocean that I posted yesterday?
I missed that. On FB, I assume?
They look awesome!
Thank you! . They look beautiful!
