Help Me Identify This Please!

[Funky Mum]

We've recently moved and the garden has some raised beds which has given us 1 leek and some potato plants left from the previous owner.
There are a few of these too and I'm not sure if they are weeds or something else they planted.
Any ideas?
Thanks so much!

That'll be a poppy!

Hmmm...well....not really sure- but it looks ever so much like a poppy plant.

One of my neighbours played a prank on another allotment holder by sprinkling a packet of giant double headed poppy seeds on his plot. Double purple headed ones.
Anyway - they all came up and looked fantastic between the crops....year after year. We all ended up sprinkling a few seed heads on ours.
Anyway- they look ever so similar to those.

I'd be tempted to leave them and see.

( what do ya bet someone will post that it's a vegetable/herb now I've said that!!! )

Apparently PURPLE poppies are sold to commemorate animals who suffer in wars. I found this link with details about it. Excellent idea if ya ask me.

Deffo purple Poppy - we are invaded by them every year. They do tend so suffer a little mildew, on occasions...

It's not often that I can do flowers and get it right

I never knew that!

The poppies that come up at the Hill like WEEDS are deep, deep scarlet and however vigorous weeding is (er - not always) a few always escape my attention - when they bud up I haven't the heart to hoof them out, and so I let them flower.

I found an orange poppy, self seeded by my neighbours garage!! Never heard of orange ones before. Can't wait until it seeds, I'm going harvesting

I love poppies.

We tried for years to grow the yellow Welsh ones and they never took; I had one come up at school, so uprooted it and brought it home [the teachers would have pulled it out if I'd left it], and put it in the bed outside the kitchen door, and lo and behold this year, it's self seeded. Flowered 3 days ago. Lovely

Opium poppy is what it is

I weed out the purple ones on my lotty, but keep the bright reds

Those with quickest eye and snappiest trowel get the glory

I do it too, but I also share my customers' plants among each other, when I've divided them up.
