Description
If you love poppies, be sure to visit my gallery, Poppies. This California Poppy is about to shed it's delicate cover (sepals) and burst open in the morning sunlight. Background is a mat of sweet alyssum. Shot in my garden using available light.
Eschscholzia californica (California poppy, golden poppy, California sunlight, cup of gold) is a species of flowering plant in the family Papaveraceae, native to the United States and Mexico, and the official state flower of California.
Alyssum maritimum, common name sweet alyssum or sweet alison, also commonly referred to as just alyssum (from the genus Alyssum in which it was formerly classified) is a species of low-growing flowering plant in the family Brassicaceae.
