A beautiful flower that's very ornate and unusual. A macro shot reveals magenta ruffled petals and the inner portion fanning into the center of a cylinder like portion with stamen around the outer edge and a large orange pistol.

"A 'Drama Queen', (Papaver somnifenum), opium poppy or breadseed poppy, from my friend's yard last summer. This species has medicinal properties."

Even after the successful completion of their purpose many plant flowers have a new life as an artistic form. This Opium Poppy seed pack is a case in point.

Close up photo of an opium poppy. A smaller legal version that can be grown in certain areas. Botanically speaking, it is the same flower, but harvesting its syrup would be much harder.

A downturned Field Poppy after rain. The green stalk is uppermost, the crumpled red petals below covered in rain drops. Blurred background.

The top of an Opium Poppy seed head, now dried and the openings through which seeds will be shaken loose are visible just below the yellow cap.

First is a Field Poppy after rain. Second it the open seed head of an Opium Poppy, also after rain.

A close-up of a deep purple opium poppy with velvety petals, showing intricate details of the flower's texture and delicate central stigma. The petals are rich in color, with subtle gradients of purple and lavender, and the pistil stands out at the center, surrounded by fine, almost translucent veins.

“Like poppies in the breeze, we live in moments, then drift, leaving only a memory behind."
