For years I have thrown
Poppy seeds in the garden
and they do not come up.
This year I have 6 plants
that I have been guarding.
Early this morning I spotted
the first bloom.
Beautiful is the thought.
I smile
as I consider it a gift to me.....

I keep trying to grow forget me nots. No luck. You have inspired me to keep trying.
I love it when there are these kinds of gifts.
I have my first gardenia bud and it looks like it will open tomorrow. I can hardly wait to take in its' wonderful scent.
Have a lovely weekend ~ FlowerLady
What a nice surprise for you. It's a pretty bloom. Is it a double? I had the regular old orange poppies at my former house and wanted a pale pink one. Those orange ones multiplied like crazy, but the pink one just stayed a single plant.
Enjoy your gift...just in time for Mother's Day.
Have a wonderful weekend.
