2 more pictures in notes above! :)
What a surprise I got when I went outside to see how my poppy bud was doing! I whooped in delight when I found it completely open in the morning sun, and a gorgeous, glorious, ruby red! My very first red poppy! I stared in rapt joy at this delicate blossom before I watered the garden, and then I took pictures. So, the droplets you see were not from rain, but I certainly loved the way they made the petals look!
Today was the hottest of the year so far, topping out at over 100 degrees. At the end of the day, I was not surprised to find that this beautiful poppy was fried by the heat, its petals curled up and shriveled. How happy I am that I got pictures of it this morning, so that its beauty will be remembered!
Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl of Chesterfield PC KG (22 September 1694 – 24 March 1773) was a British statesman and man of letters.He was born in London and was known as Lord Stanhope until his father's death in 1726. After being educated at Trinity Hall, Cambridge, he went on the Grand Tour of the continent. The death of Anne and the accession of George I opened up a career for him and brought him back to England. His relative James Stanhope, the king's favourite minister, procured for him the place of gentleman of the bedchamber to the Prince of Wales. He was a Whig.
