Poppies and alliums

The first year of living here was the anniversary of the start of WW1 and we had a mass of poppies appear on our freshly dug soil which seemed very appropriate so I left them to flower and of course to seed themselves profusely. I love the bright splashes of colour that they create and so they remain woven through my other planting. I took this photo early in the morning - I'd got up at 5.30 and took my cup of tea out into the garden before I started digging (hoping to avoid the heat and also to complete the task before forecast storms).
