Hello!

When this first started growing I thought it was a poppy.

It does not look like a poppy anymore?

Anyone know what it is?

Thankyou!

That looks like a poppy to me, specifically Papaver somniferum.

Here is a web page with more pictures of it, for comparison:

Oh, great! I haven't had a poppy this large before so I thought maybe I was wrong earlier!
