This poppy was extra tall for some reason ( I guess it has some Ditch genes!) and stood proud of the rest of the barley field, catching the moring light brilliantly. By the end of the day it was gone liek all t hother poppies. Then the cornflowers came to the fore in th eafternoon light. One of the best things about this bed wqas the way that it changed so dramatically in the course of a day.
