Matilija (pronounced muh-till-i-hah) poppies are amazing flowers. They bloom all at once, have flowers about 5″ in diameter, and can stand over 6 feet tall. Impressive when you have vast swaths of them. This year’s crop is magnificent!.

Wow! Are they in your garden?
No, indeed! If they were, I’d be in heaven, and have no garden left. These are up in our local botanical garden . . . maybe I’ll take a video of them to show you how wonderfully grand they are. (Never took a video on a camera – it’ll probably suck. ;-))
Am sure it won’t suck! They do look lovely. I’m planting a,poppy garden this weekend, hope it goes as well as those!
