Flower in the Wrong Place Male
Default Flower in the Wrong Place

Every year I grow a pot of this lovely annual, and collect seeds to start the next year's pot. Inevitably a plant or two just sort of pops up on its own, and sometimes I let them grow, sometimes not. This year due to an unusually brutal winter with below average temperature and almost no snow cover the pot came up empty. Fortunately this one popped up, but in a rather unusual place. It's in my bog, and this is most definitely not a bog plant! Papaver somniferum, the Opium Poppy:
