Icelandic Poppies

The building management at my office complex in Burbank switches out the flowers every season. This spring, they've put in icelandic poppies! What I like about this flower the most is its delicate paper like petals. I also like them because when I was young, my family took a trip to Vancouver and visited Butchart Gardens. I still remember my grandma commenting on how she liked these flowers and I thought "So do I!" To this day I still remember that.

Love the soft pink blossoms.


You can really see the delicate paperlike texture of the petals here.


This is how it would feel if you were a bug on the leaf!
