Poppies - Papaver Rhoeas

Poppys

Poppies can be found in many parts of the mountains, but the most obvious places are on the highways in most counties throughout the mountains. They bloom at various times from April to August. Each plant can produce up to 17,000 seeds that can lie dormant in the sail for 80-100 years.
