why are my backyard poppies exploding with color this week?

Every morning this week, I’ve rushed outside to check on my poppies. They’re finally blooming and it’s wild how much joy those bright petals bring. Last month, I scattered the seeds in a sunny patch and barely covered them with soil. I read somewhere that poppies like a little neglect, so I resisted the urge to water them every day. Turns out, less fuss really works! Now, I’m surrounded by a sea of color, and I can’t stop taking photos. If you want this kind of backyard magic, try giving your poppies some space and sunlight. It’s so worth it when those first buds pop open. #gardeningtips #poppies #backyardbliss #Gardening
