Poppy in the rain.
Poppy (Poppy) is a genus of flowering plants. A well-known species is the sleeping globe (Papaver somniferum), from which opium is extracted. This species is also used as an ornamental plant.
In some regions, the poppy is also called 'kollenbloem' (magic pot or kol = witch). In Albanian the poppy is called "lule flanules" or "flower with flags".
The seeds of the poppy are often used in certain (mainly sweet) dishes such as the traditional Polish Makowiec cake. The seed of the sleeping globe is used on buns under the name poppy seed.
The juice of the poppy was formerly used to colour Edam cheese.
