Hi there, can anyone identify the plants below. The first one is, I assume, a weed but wanted to check before I whip it out. The second is the one growing through the daffs.
Not sure what is going on with the site but couldn't then get logged on on my computer - it wouldn't recognise my details even when I reset my password. Have had to create a new account and upload photos with my phone but here they now are....
I have a sneaky suspicion that the top one is a tangerine semi double poppy, an absolute gem. I have grown loads from seeds and really love it. A delicate little thing that goes well with any colour scheme. However it does not move well!! However I could be wrong and it may just be a flanders type poppy - just as lovely but more freely available.

Oh no for some reason the photos aren't embedding....
Hi Prof, can't see any images. Try again with the camera symbol on the right hand side

the top one is a poppy of some sort
the bottom one ? larkspur, I don't think it's Love in a Mist but it's a possible.

Could the bottom one be a Marguerite? I only say this as it looks identical to some cuttings that I took last year.

I think you're in the right area Melspad, it's not a field/opium/Welsh poppy. I don't think I'd go as far as deciding single/double/semi-double yet
