PASTOR BAG MAUVE

Come spring and summer we all fields, roads and open fields with this bold and beautiful red flower, the poppy.
We've never paid more attention than just right?. For the truth is that it has its applications and should not be underestimated.
sure some have heard it is similar to poppy, but do not expect to find in it the drug we all think, opium, although raw, though not without its risks if not properly used.
Photos were taken by me in Santa Maria del Paramo, an uncultivated field.
