LET'S COMPARE SOME POPPIES - PAPAVER APULUM & PAPAVER RHOEAS
Yeah, let's do it. It could be fun. In an educational, geeky way.
I photographed a ton of poppies this spring. I took portraits of a single flower and photographed groups of them peaking from the surrounding greenery. I photographed through the macro lens and took quite a few wide-angle shots. I spent so much time with poppies that I almost started talking to those lovely flowers.

All the poppies I encountered, which means all the plants you'll see and read about in this post, belong to two species - Papaver rhoeas and Papaver apulum.
I also included a few small arthropods to spice up this botanical post with a bit of fauna.   

<a href="https://images.ecency.com/DQmNowthj2EAcrz2hSh2jB9EfdMsPAK39o4HjLMf6Hxq4KU/img_8284i58dvooshtro.jpg"><img

These two shots show the two Papaver species standing proudly next to each other, like they never would in nature. One of them is considerably taller than the other, and I never saw the two species growing really close to each other. The intensely red flower on the left is Papaver rhoeas, commonly known as the common poppy, red poppy, or field poppy. The paler one on the right is the smaller Papaver apulum. Some internet sites state that the common name of Papaver apulum is the peacock poppy, while the majority mention only the scientific name - decide for yourself how to interpret this information.

Here you can see two photographs that show the center of each flower. On the left is Papaver apulum, while on the right, you can take a good look at the Papaver rhoeas. I used the flash to evenly illuminate all the little details of the anthers and the pistils. The direct, harsh light is good enough for a picture that wants to get the flower's anatomy thrown in your face, but without any atmosphere or sense of art. It's a kind of image that feels like a list of words, a shopping list or something, instead of being a little visual poem. In the following two shots ...

... the flowers were photographed in the low ambient light at dusk. Papaver apulum is on the left again, and Papaver rhoeas is on the right. Everything looks more elegant here. Less brightness - more magic. Low light makes the shooting more challenging, but the results can be very rewarding.

Here you can see a lovely trio of Papaver rhoeas flowers surrounded by many flower buds, while in the following set of four photographs ...

... you can admire a bunch of Papaver apulum flowers slapped by the wind.

Most Papaver apulum present in this post were photographed on a windy day, so they may look more disheveled than common poppies. If you compare the two above shots, you'll notice how the flowers change their shape and position due to the wind. 

<a href="https://images.ecency.com/DQmXA2NyHLCbTsguDhyfLXEb7x9ykagkS4e2iA6pqAPffrc/img_8304i47dvooshtro.jpg"><img

These two shots are here to let you compare the flower buds. The smaller Papaver apulum is on the left - the bigger common poppy (Papaver rhoeas) is on the right. The developing flowers are well hidden, encased in pretty large green and hairy sepals that form something that looks like an alien pod, a thing from another world lost in the depths of the universe. 

<a href="https://images.ecency.com/DQmRndLiwMXQXoUXekEDkLyD6CrGPcq6f8PCk3ejwRPmyMJ/img_8408i86dvooshtro.jpg"><img

At some point, the pod, pressured by the spreading petals, will crack and show the vivid interior. You can see the birth of a poppy flower in the above picture. 
The photograph on the left shows the Papaver apulum, the one on the right Papaver rhoeas.

<a href="https://images.ecency.com/DQmZpviTkCqbJGg751xVMrGt22gGch2PDs8khdxGEyxwmyS/img_8343i51_dvooshtro.jpg"><img

When the fully developed flower spreads its petals, the sepals will fall. In these two photographs, Papaver rhoeas is on the left, and Papaver apulum is on the right.

On one occasion, late in the afternoon ...

... I came across a scene that looked like the birth of a bushcricket at first sight.

The soft, humid insect was coming out of an old exoskeleton hooked on the Papaver rhoeas flower bud. 

![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmbzAFAC5VRsWKTGnUMTmMzJwRiwAnu25qLEcitrV73Trx/img_8672_malo.jpg)

The developing nymph has grown too big for its old exoskeleton.

I photographed this process many times, but never in such a photogenic, colorful environment.

In these two photographs, Papaver apulum is on the left, and Papaver rhoeas is on the right. You probably noticed that flower buds are in both species situated on bent stems, while the flowers aren't. 

<a href="https://images.ecency.com/DQmU4ownx1SHJFCnoX827Tbgnwqp6yCzmVzkEgBxxuuvM4t/img_8341do53_cetiroshtro.jpg"><img

The flower is at the top of a vertical stem.

As the flower is getting closer to spreading its petals, the stem slowly straightens until reaching the vertical position. In the above picture, Papaver apulum is on the left again, and Papaver rhoeas is on the right. Again. 
The following two photographs ...

... show two flower buds of the same kind. They are both Papaver apulum flower buds. The one on the left is bent, the other one is straight, which means considerably closer to a fully developed flower.

Papaver rhoeas flower buds in various stages of development display a nice amount of diversity. For example, some are more rounded, while others tend to a more elongated shape. In this set of five photographs, you can explore the small differences and admire the individuality of each bud. 

![](https://images.ecency.com/DQma4qPP2AiYYfBRpczee17FGx2aY6H3JDKDn1hMHgqJLfe/img_8323_malo.jpg)

This is the Oxyopes heterophthalmus, a spider from the Oxyopidae family.

The Oxyopes heterophthalmus was resting on the field poppy flower bud. The flower bud in question was a pretty peculiar one. It was connected to the leaves and the central stem of the plant by the silk produced by another spider. 
Cheiracanthium punctorium, commonly known as the yellow sac spider, a species from the Cheiracanthiidae family, builds large, sac-like structures that envelop parts of vegetation, turning them into a solid shelter. 
If you take the time to explore all the details in the above photograph, you may notice the legs of Cheiracanthium punctorium hidden in the silky sac.
The flower bud, with its elegantly bent, sinuous stem, looks like an interesting sculpture. 
Observing the shapes and colors in nature is quite similar to exploring an art gallery or museum.

For a few seconds, a thread of silk stretching from the Oxyopes heterophthalmus' abdomen to the neighboring plant was visible. When I took the following photograph ...

Each of these two photographs shows the same two Papaver rhoeas flowers. The left photograph was taken in ambient light only, while to get the one on the right, I used the small, built-in flash of my camera to illuminate the central parts of the flowers.

Psilothrix viridicoerulea is a beetle from the Melyridae family that often feeds on pollen inside the poppy flowers. Here you can see the beetle posing on the petals of the Papaver apulum flower, beautifully illuminated by the subdued light at dusk. In the following photograph ...

A decoration that doesn't last long, though. The fallen petals shrivel and then dissolve pretty fast.

These two shots can let you compare the fresh, young fruits of Papaver apulum and Papaver rhoeas. Papaver apulum is on the left, and Papaver rhoeas is on the right. I used the flash here.

Here you can compare another pair of poppy fruits. Papaver apulum is on the left, and Papaver rhoeas is on the right.

<a href="https://images.ecency.com/DQmULkR2ousaTWN8Gh79a3xhasMaKvJNrPieeCZp7EFgaY4/img_8719i21i22trooshtro.jpg"><img

This tryptich shows a recently formed Papaver rhoeas fruit still surrounded by anthers. Each of the three shots was taken with slightly different camera settings.

Here you can see yet another portrait of a Papaver rhoeas fruit that looks like a head with a nicely designed little hat on its top.

In these two shots, you can compare the flowers, for a change. On the left is Papaver rhoeas - guess who is on the right?

This wide shot shows Papaver apulum flowers on a windy afternoon. Their petals were fluttering in the wind. The following triptych...

<a href="https://images.ecency.com/DQmeL6G1JM8Pu4yLYSv69HeSQWVhcx77KTvpzqytwfqrQPE/img_9447i85i99trooshtro.jpg"><img

... shows more flowers of the same kind.

What can I tell you here? Just another shot that shows the Papaver apulum fruits and flowers next to each other, that's all. 

<a href="https://images.ecency.com/DQmWzVg96wrF79k2BRyHYHi5EU62EWJgY7BnLujxv6CX2WP/img_8568i74dvooshtro.jpg"><img

These two shots show the same Papaver rhoeas flower bud almost ready to spread its petals and lose its sepals. The photograph on the left was taken with the flash, the other one without it.

Here you can see the Papaver rhoeas flower buds in the light of the late afternoon.

This triptych shows the Papaver apulum flower buds in various stages of development. I mean, the three shots show only two flowerbuds. The photographs on the left and the right show the same flower bud photographed with the flash and in ambient light. The central photograph shows another flower bud of the same species, and it was taken with the flash. 

<a href="https://images.ecency.com/DQmWVaXVw3TYEtmwpqkBKeyuh8iA3kusE6SRVQzd12tStqz/img_8558_oshtro.jpg"><img

Here you can see the Runcinia grammica, a spider from the Thomisidae family, posing on the Papaver rhoeas flower bud. This is a very small, juvenile spider.

This Papaver apulum flower bud was photographed against the blue background of the sky.

Yes, and it's great that all those flowers, especially the big, beautiful sunflowers, can often be seen in big numbers. That multitude of flowers creates a real visual spectacle.

This is absolutely wonderful -- so much in two types of poppies, in their different stages -- such glories of spring!

Seeing different types of flowers and plants is an interesting activity for all of us and it makes us much more relaxed. The design of each flower is quite beautiful and different, so each flower looks more beautiful than the other.

(I also included a few small arthropods to spice up this botanical post with a bit of fauna.)
I suppose you mean this, look at that, it seems like it's hungry, I read that carnivorous plants if they catch you they kill you slowly, let me explain: They catch you, close their mouth or whatever that is hahaha, as time goes by they secrete liquid like that of a human stomach and they feed on the person, so this little plant is of respect
A big hug, poppies are beautiful, insects are NOT, I'm being honest you know

Gorgeous pictures! I love poppies and it's always nice to see fields full of them, very pretty. It's interesting how they come from the bent stem and straighten before blooming, it's always seemed odd to me but there must be  some protection from the elements to develop that way.  

Those pictures really are fantastic, you spend a lot of time focusing on those macro details. Time very well spent! It's also interesting to see how the insects have adapted to take advantage of the flowers as well, either for nectar, shelter, or to hunt.  Great job!

Yes. πŸ™‚ Poppies are beautiful flowers, and since they often appear in big numbers, it's a real visual spectacle. Being for a couple of hours in such an environment rich in details, colors, and all kinds of springtime scents and sounds that photography can't convey, always recharges me when I feel washed out and tired.

What a lovely and detailed post! The photos are amazing, and I enjoyed learning about the two poppy species and the tiny creatures around them. Nature is truly beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
