Balance is restored

 Chloe is visiting, and after my awful start to the day yesterday with the crushed poppy (and two iris patches knocked down as well I noticed later), she and Josh took matters into their own hands. They put up a small fence in the most vulnerable patch of my garden bordering the sidewalk and bought and planted two new poppy plants of unknown colour. I have promises of seed pods from my friend Pat at work as well, who patiently heard my rant. The remaining piece of the poppy which was affected appears to be viable, but I lost the flower about to bloom. Otherwise, all is well in the garden world.
