Good morning GTers! The Welsh #poppy population seem early this year, but look set for a wet weekend! Have a super Saturday everyone! 😀

Morning Ian great shot 📸 enjoy your weekend.. Sun is trying to come out here 😊

@Di007 - Morning Diane! Thank you, you too! We've had sunshine and showers all week and it looks like we'll be having more of the same over the weekend! 😀

The garden is looking lovely and green and everything is growing fast with this rain.. Its blue skies with some grey clouds here hopefully more blue than grey heading this way.. 😊 Have a good weekend 😎 (here's hoping 😂)

Morning Ian 🧡🧡

Morning Mr another crackin shot 👍🏻

Super!! #bestofapril

@Di007 - There's certainly lots popping up at the moment - especially those darn weeds! My garden isn't too bad as it's mostly pots and containers, but dad's garden that I also tend is just incredibly wet and the soil is so heavy! We really need a few days of sustained sunshine to dry everything out! 😀

@kathy - Good morning Kathy! 😀

@KelsiBriana - Thanks Kelsi! 😀

@nessas - Good morning Vanessa! Thanks very much! 😀

@brightcolours - Thanks Katie! 😀

Good morning GTers! Don't you just love how colourful Welsh Poppies can be, and how they pop up where you least expect them? This one is the star of my weekly photo #blog which you can see at the following link if you're interested - www.bigemrg.co.uk/blog/latest Have a wonderful day everyone! 😀 #orange #poppy #welshpoppy

Morning Ian, have a great day. 💛💛💛

@pelly - Morning Jane! You too! 😀

Morning Ian great macro shot, will be pinching a few of these from mums garden that have self seeded too. Will go great in my orange, yellow and red border 🔥

@Keely - Morning Keely and thank you! They usually show up as individuals in my garden but I bet they'd look great en mass in a border! 😀

Awesome pic Ian 👍 I will look forward to reading your blog later 🤓

Good morning Ian @bigemrg .......love these POPPIES. I really don't mind where they pop up as they are so pretty and flower for months. Enjoy your day :)

Afternoon GT peeps! Very wet here today, but at least the Welsh Poppies are enjoying the refreshment!

Oh my, these photos just get more stunning! It looks like an umbrella for a little garden sprite ☔

😍😍🙌

I agree with @tash74 It is a stunning photo ...

@bigemrg love this photo. I have a lot of Welsh poppies myself, I let them self seed around the garden but none of mine are open yet 😊

Fantastic photo :)

Looks like my Welsh Poppies have self seeded themselves around my garden again! 😀

@bigemrg .......they can self seed where ever they want as far as I'm concerned. Great pic.......just love them :)

@flof1952 - Thanks! I love them too! They get everywhere, and seem to come up in the most unusual places! 😀

Fantastic photo :)

@clickchick - Thanks Jean! 😀

@bigemrg @flof1952 I love the Welsh yellow poppy but you can have too much of a good thing. I've fought a losing battle with them for 30 yrs. At first I thought they're beautiful so left them all. Next year an explosion and they were everywhere. The problem here is the wind is so strong & frequent that they're blown everywhere and start growing in places you cannot get them out from. Fully grown they have a huge taproot so I take them out when I see them. Love them but I have to cull them.

@angipangi - I guess I'm lucky that most of my garden is pond, and that's about the only place they definitely won't grow! 😀

#poppy #selfseed #welsh

Well, now I know the name of the yellow flowers that have been springing up in my garden for several years! 😃

I am poppy obsessed. *my name is Sara and I am addicted to poppies*

@riakat - They come in orange too! 😀 @sara2309 - I think I have the same problem! 😀

The gardens round here have an abundance of these. The birds are busy 😊
Good morning GTers! There are lots of Welsh Poppies popping up all over the place at the moment! Have a super Saturday everyone! 😀 #poppy #welshpoppy #orange
Morning Ian....you too💛🧡💛
@wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom - Morning Elaine!😀
