Buttercup oxalis,iceland poppy, calendula in my garden

Anemone which i grew from bulbs, this one is first bloomer.

Shirely poppies, more free flowering but less delicate then ice land ones

Iceland poppies, my favorite.

Calendula, they come in bi-colors too.

Oriental lily, very fragrant. The aroma fills the whole home not just room.

Nasturtiums

I love oxalis and bees love too. Very adaptable to our warm climate.

Bees love this dahlia

This one shot at Lawrence garden lahore, Pretty Gerbera daisy.

    Im amazed that you are able to plant both cold climate plants together with tropical plants in your garden especially those beautiful looking poppies & anemone.
