Well, I hope the deer didn’t get too sick. Poppies are in a weird place in Australia. you can just buy the seeds in shops but if you plant them that’s crimes.
There are places they grow as weeds, and if you’re someone who wanders off the beaten path you can stumble on some suspiciously well tended clusters.
It’s a shame because I think they’re very beautiful and would love to grow them ornamentally (actually, not “ornamentally”) but there’s no way I could plausibly plead ignorance if someone noticed what I was growing.
That is strange. It’s a felony if they have score marks here in California, but otherwise ok. Last year somebody dumped a bunch of seeds all along the weedy sides of several busy roadways here. They grew beautifully and they all disappeared on the same day. I don’t know if it was the authorities or the person that planted them or someone else. Maybe it was the deer.
I’m sure the deer are fine. These assholes are eating all kinds of things that are known to be “deer resistant” or “poisonous” or “covered in hot pepper wax and garlic juice.” If they got a tummy ache it certainly didn’t dissuade them from coming back for more. Assholes.
