The plant you use in beer - called "humle" here. This one is
actually over 130 years old. Grows everywhere in bad soil and little
water. The actual parts you use in the beer are not visible yet, a few
weeks to go until they appear. In earlier years, every farmer here
had to have some of these plants on his farm, or he would get a fine
from the king as punishment.

"Hops" is it?

..in bloom...heres a special one, this is "papaver somniferum"
also known as heroin-poppy. Now that might sound like a problem,
but they grow wild at random points all over the country, including
my garden where they were growing decades before i arrived. This
one is an old "untouched" strain with huge beautiful pink flowers, formed
like a football, not the flat 5-petal ones that are smaller, there are many
different types, not all have the opiates in them.
The reason its not a problem, is that you would need a football field
or two full to be able to do something with it, so its just a pretty, big weed.
Very resiliant plant, grows pretty much everywhere and every plant have
many hundreds of seeds so they spread fast, even in bad soil and little
water.

So do you own a football field? |

 no, i have no use for it used like that, i just like plants.
some people have reacted about this plant when i have showed it
to them, but its not my fault they know little about the nature
in the country they live in

| You have to admit that a Norwegian poppy field would truly be something; and you would get TV coverage at the trial. |

probably someone whos trying/have tried, theres always someone
pretty sure you have them in denmark also. they`re not originally
at home here, but in the past people have brought seeds home with
them to have the poppies in their garden, and then they just spread
out over time after that. We have alot! of different phsycedelic/drug
plants/mushrooms growing wild all over here up north
Forgot to mention, the reason i keep it now, is because its
a part of a small poison-garden i`m working on, sort of a
exostic, funky display - just for the eye, not the mind |
