No matter whether the cherry blossoms and first-wave spring flowers come early or late, whether spring is a wet and cool or warm and lovely (well, spring is always lovely in Maryland), or whatever other factors are at hand, always, always, always the poppies in my mom’s garden bloom on my sister’s birthday, May 13th.
Here’s the first one of the season; it bloomed yesterday, and the second one opened today.
Happy birthday, Rebecca Newburn! ❤
