Purple fluffy starfish poppy pod. Looks like an iced dessert :-) Trying to confirm exact identity as I've seen so many variations. Possibly Patty's Plum Oriental Poppy. This one has 9 Stigmatic Rays. Genus: papaver?

Hi Mark :-) Unfortunately I don't have a picture of the whole flower but have added another which shows a bit more of the petals.
What does the rest of it look like?
Lovely image.
Very pretty and nice description. Do you have an image of the entire plant?
