By looking at the leaves I'd guess it's a Papaver somniferum-type, but I'm no poppy-expert. I'm certain somebody else will know for sure.

I'm not a poppy expert either but I'd love to see those poppies again when they open up and flower for you.

They do look like a Somniferum-type to me too Droopy. I'd love to see another shot when those buds open
