And the Joshua Trees are doing well too.

oh nutty - you beat me to it. I'm going to try to hit the area this weekend. With all the rain we've had I bet the blooms will be magnificient this year. WooHoo!

But.... these are not poppies you shot!

Angelo and jwear,


You are both correct, these are not poppies...They are another wildflower...I think they are known as Coreopsis, but commonly grow near the poppies. I guess the poppies haven't started blooming yet. We still have time. Sorry for the false alarm.
