The vibrant yellow flowered California poppy, scientifically known as Eschscholzia californica, is a sight to behold. This beautiful wildflower can be found in abundance across the hills of California, creating breathtaking landscapes alongside Lupine flowers. Its delicate open yellow flower head showcases its stigma, filaments, and stamen with grace. Often referred to as the Californian poppy or Californian tree poppy (Romneya coulteri), this species belongs to the Papaveraceae family. While it shares its name with other members of the Poppy genus like Papaver somniferum (opium poppy), Eschscholzia californica stands out for its unique charm. Whether blooming in gardens against a blue sky in Astoria, Oregon or covered in raindrops during a drizzle, these California Poppies never fail to captivate observers. Their presence adds an enchanting touch to any landscape they inhabit. Eschscholzia californica holds cultural significance as well. Native Americans have long revered this plant for its medicinal properties and used it for various purposes such as treating toothaches and headaches.
