Fascinating story

Blue poppies are irresistible, so the cover photo alone was enough to make me want to buy this book. What a delight it is, a personal account of the author's obses... hobby: growing as many species of blue poppies as he can. It's not a how-to manual (although there are growing tips throughout), but rather a warm account of the species and the author's experience with them. It made for a very enjoyable read.
