During the People's Park riots, a group of Alameda County deputies charged through the yard in an attempt to catch one of the demonstrators but failed when he scaled the fence... they couldn't, too much gear on them I guess. Anyway, they noticed the flowers, inspected them and then left. About a week later we were visited by the local police who said that they were California Poppies and although probably planted legally several years earlier, weren't legal anymore and had to be removed, bulbs and all, and given to them. Your plants look just like em. - -- Jim - http://www.hemenway.com Mark Pope wrote: > > The digital camera has dug me out of a hole this week.
