They've already bloomed?? My poppy are just done putting leaves and are starting to maybe think of getting a flower out, some day next month, maybe.

The majority of my poppies are still trying haha. This is the first bloom of the year for me.

Love love love Calendula! It always reseeds itself all over my garden and I move it into my rows scattered amongst the veggies they bloom all summer and I like to think they bring in good pollinators but I also just love how pretty they are and always make a big batch of Calendula salve we use for pretty much everything. Yours are beautiful! Good job.
