Poppies are fantastic for planting along the edges of a veggie patch at this time of year. They like the cold, don’t take up much space and bees fucking love them. These guys opened up overnight and there are already a bunch of bees floating around them. Hopefully they can work their magic on the broadbeans which are still doing JACK SHIT.
Love it. I'm going to go look for some, the owners of this place love cheerful flowers but since having a baby haven't had the time to do any of that.
Have patience with those broad beans... Like wait until October kind of patience... and then drown in bushels of the stuff.
