Ah, the poppy.
So brilliantly colored.
So historically dangerous.
It’s an odd mix. Beautiful flower and bringer of destruction. There’s a tendency for humans to associate dangerous with ugly, but opium and all its variations comes from such a pretty plant. Although, opiates are used for medical painkillers as well, so it does have some healing aspects as well. And poppy seeds are just tasty.
And very few flowers get quite this vibrant a red.
