Plant of the Week 82
Father's Day is all about relaxing, and here's a Plant of the Week to help you do just that.
Private message me with your guess.
Please Don't Post Your Answer in the Thread!!!
And Happy Father's Day to Stonehenge, jwholden, and all the other great Dads out there who bust their hump in the green industry to provide for their families. 
I get to spend the day at a dance recital (only 3 hours long). How great is that?! 
Good thing Randy's Fun Hunters Pub is just down the road from the recital hall, and the Rye Beer should still be available.  |

And the winners are...
Plant of the Week 82 is Papaver orientale 'Picotee'. Congratulations to jshilan, dan deutekom, Terre, prapoza, Ax Man, TrickyDick, Chris Heiler, and Greensmith who all got it right.
Terre deserves special distinction for being the only one to correctly get the cultivar. Way to go Terre!  |

Congrats Terre
Man, I'm just happy to recognize the plant, let alone the cultivar.

You had me worried. You ususally tell me when I'm right, so I began to doubt myself.

Only a Compulsuve nervosa collectorus 'Plantii' would know the cultivar

We all have to be good at something. I may not have a clue about a lot of the things you guys know about hardscaping, but so long as Voodoo stays away from trees, I can do this!

Terre,
I didn't respond right away, because I wasn't sure of the cultivar! Google says, "You're right."
