California Poppies


This pretty orange wildflower, is native to these hills, and the state flower. 

Our property consists of and is surrounded by some pretty barren hillsides. I recently ordered a pound of Orange California Poppy seeds online and they arrived the same day as our first rain... how serendipitous! 

We immediately headed out to start scattering seeds! 


Livvy thought it would be nice to have some down by the climbing tree. I couldn't agree more! 




With any luck at all our hillside will look something like this in the spring.
