In post #3379, the poppies are beautiful! That is our promise of spring! Are they your poppies, Meg?

Is there a way to cut poppies and keep them fresh looking in the house? (Like tulips can be kept fresh looking by dipping the cut ends in hot wax - let it cool, and they will stay fresh looking for days.)

Thank you, yorkie Those are California poppies..I found a new source for California wildflowers..Everything I post is from the net unless it is noted..My daughter took some kitty pics Christmas..Some did not turn out but I have 2 or 3 that did.
I don’t think I have ever seen poppies from the florist..I don’t think they will last.
