Do these poppies

come in different colours, Henryk,
or are they always red. We also
have the "lower elevation" poppies
growing in the Southwest deserts.
Have you ever heard of the alpine
Poppy? Just curious, take care!!

Re: Do these poppies

Yes, poppies come in many colors. Alpine poppies are white. They are rare and can be found in Poland only in the Tatras. Greetings, Henryk.
