Oh, the English Summer, I wish I was there.
I too have been enjoying our weather until yesterday we had a hot day. We don't get too many here in the Summer, as we are close to the water, but when we have a muggy 90F day here I don't want to think what it must be like inland.
I LOVE yellow poppies. I just bought some new yellow poppies to add to my little border and was so excited when I found then as I have a huge wild beach poppy (can't remember the latin name) that I grow here and it is an amazing companion to it!
The Summer is a great time to create and how can we not be inspired by all the lovely nature! I always feel that once we hit July it just speeds by though. So good thing we are out there enjoying it!
I love the colour and movement of your piece, I can feel the warm breeze and the English sunshine.
I think I'm going to try and increase the variety of poppies I have in my garden for next year, once you buy the seeds they just self seed each year - so a pretty cheap investment. When I started planting my garden a few years ago I kept everything to a purple, silver and pink colour scheme, but the wild yellow poppies that seeded themselves in my garden have inspired me to introduce more colour.
