Flower of the Day – October 3 – Poppy – Spot The Odd One Out?

I’m dedicating this week to my Poppies! 🙂

Day 4.

A photo of one of my Poppy patches in full bloom. The regular (second/Day 3) type – red with a black centre; ones most are familiar with as field poppies. But one is different….

(Click on the pics to open in a new window and click again to see full size detail) 🙂
There’s always one who just has to be different – to stand out in a crowd. 🙂

I imagine my two types got crossbred and the Orange colour of type 1 got taken up by the flower shape of type 2… but where did the golden stamen come from? Or the brown instead of black cross?

Who cares!  She is gorgeous!  Life would be boring if we were all exactly alike. 🙂
