Self sowers

Warmer weather and moisture still in the ground enables self sowers to put on a lot of growth at this time of year.  Here, Eschscholzia californica (california poppy) is ready to put on its dazzling bright display in my small front forecourt. In truth, they need to be thinned out at an early stage otherwise you'll be over run by them but by leaving the odd one here and there, you'll have a lovely natural display.
