Couler’s Matilija Poppy. I’m never sure if those I see are wild or cultivated. I’m going to say this one is cultivated since it was outside an industrial building.
I just love this Poppy. It’s my favorite of them all. The flowers can get as big as a salad plate: 6 inches! It is the largest of any native CA plant. Just look at all the Pollen!

Thank you! I’m just about over it. Still some healing to do, and itching with the healing but no lingering pain. I hope that means I have been blessed and won’t have any nerve damage to worry about. Fingers crossed and prayers being said daily! Thank you so much for asking! xx
