California Poppy

i agreed with that conclusion, noah as this fantastic possibility of comparing dieferents zones,that make us se the natural world with other eyes,from other prismas,cool:)

I think you might have a variety of Wind Poppy too.
it is very spooky how the same flowers bloom at the same time in different places.
Very much like how Arlanda , Sachin and I had elm tree seedpods at the same time of the year.
India, California and Spain must be having very similar weathers.

beautiful Emma,this year is poppy year in my areas,i se poppys allover :) and you to.in califórnia you are rufly at same latitude than we are in portugal.but your clima is much more drie,even so the flowers like you said me several times are very similar to the mediterranean zone,we make several spottings with same species sometimes in the same week :)
