Happiness is a Place Between…
...Too Little and Too Much
- Finnish Proverb
Spotted flowers growing curbside during one of my trips to the beach. Out came my camera for a quick shot.
The Common Poppy, Papaver dubium, is a variable annual, growing to about 60 cm in height. It generally flowers in late spring to mid-summer. The flower is large and showy.
The flower stem is usually covered with coarse hairs that are closely appressed to the surface. The capsules are hairless, elongated to more than twice as tall as they are wide, tapering slightly at the tip, with a stigma generally less wide than the capsule.
