Flower Challenge

orange flower
As I won’t be posting again until Sunday morning, I thought I would leave this pretty orange flower at the top of my blog until then. Can anyone identify it? I took the photo in Jerusalem.

This is probably an eschscholzia (thank you, Ilana-Davita!)

Beautiful color, very delicate flower.
Shabbat Shalom.

The color is right for a California Poppy, but as Leora wrote, it's too floppy for a poppy.

"Louis" to Editor: (ahem) after THAT, your point is? )

Louis la Vache, thanks for funny comment. Even if you aren't saying much that is new.
