Guess what??

No. You'll never guess. I'll just tell you.

After three years of trying, after watching EVERYONE else have success, even if they didn't intend to, and after almost giving up, I have real, live CALIFORNIA POPPIES in my backyard! It's a miracle! Right up there with walking on water and virgin birthin', I tell you whut.

I've been watching this plant grow with some curiosity for the last several weeks. It bears close resemblance to a prolific weed in my backyard, but I was willing to wait. Granted, this is the only thing that's flowering after I dumped a whole can of wildflower seeds out there, but I'm so tickled about this one little plant, I don't care. I wish I knew how to keep it alive! Any tips?
