Floppy Poppy
This perennial native wildflower, Prickly Poppy, has petals that "flop around" in the breeze. They were seen in several natural areas (i.e. not infested with subdivisions of houses, strip malls, etc) around Denver, Colorado
Their name "Prickly Poppy" refers to its stems and leaves that resemble those of a thistle. In fact, if the flowers were not present, they would be easily mistaken for a thistle.
