Those look like pansies! Very cold hardy cuties :)
Plant id said it’s a California poppy, but some looked rufflier?
I do try and save the tab for them, but this one was just a mix and general info for all of them. Like seriously haha.
No, everyone in this thread is correct about foliage, bloom structure, petal count, etc. I never know how much info to give with plant ID corrections without coming off as an arrogant plant nerd, lol. But as a former flower farmer and florist - and knowing you like the info! - yes, those are pansies. They are not violas (although all pansies descend from violas) because they are orange; violas only appear in blue, white, purple, and yellow. Additionally, pansies have been bred for bicolor and streaky appearance which these seem to have. You will notice pansy/viola foliage is compact, low, with oblong leaves. They are prolific volunteers so look forward to more!
Yeah sorry mine came out wrong, I meant the California poppies that I looked up were rufflier so I wasn’t confident they were poppies. Hadn’t been assed to find out if the app was right or not, but you fine folks did.
I get it, I could someone’s ear off about cannabis myself.
Maybe an orange viola?
adding to all the other comments
leaves of c. poppies are relatively easy to identity
Except prickly poppy lol
Those aren’t poppies. The leaves and the flower structure is all wrong. I know this because they grow like weeds everywhere around me.
Poppies will have needle-like leaves, kinda like fennel, or wide dill. The flowers would be more conic in shape.
They certainly have the color of a Cali Poppies, but they’re more flat like a pansy maybe?
I dont think it’s a California poppy. California poppies have 4 petals of the same size and shape, evenly spaced on the flower. They also have thin, long, bifurcated leaves.
This plant has flowers with 5 petals, and they arent uniform. This flower has bilateral symmetry, but not radial symmetry like California poppy. Additionally this plant has broad short rounded leaves.
I think it’s some kind of violet. They look very happy, whatever you are doing is clearly working
Damn, that’s the information I like to get. Trying to get that myself would involve an hour of research. Never would of thought to count petal or sepal amounts.
Pansies! So bright and cheerful :)
I don’t count the dandelion blooms myself.
My neighbor has a lilac tree I think and it’s the first thing to bloom. One of my trees still isn’t out of dormancy, some are budding. Love this stupid cold-hot time of year.
