So many #poppies growing in the yard after we have had it levelled- who'd have thought the seeds would lie dormant for over 5 years.. definitely saving those seeds for the garden!

Really hoping this colour stays true if I manage to save the seeds @angiecrazycatlady but the magenta sounds gorgeous!
