    Oops. the content disappeared! I have wild poppies blooming in my vege patch and they look like opium poppies according to a picture. Am I breaking the law if I am ignorant of it?

    Wild opium poppies have spread widely (the ones I've come across are blue).

    There is an urban myth (for which there is only anecdotal evidence AFAIK), that in areas where there was goldmining over 100 years ago they were introduced by Chinese. The poppies have certainly have spread/bred all over the Peel R district and there indeed was intensive Chinese mining at Nundle.

    I don't think anyone is going to worry about the odd poppy flower or two - after all there is that weed that some people smoke growing freely on the banks of parts of the Hunter River

    Poppy seeds are great on fresh bread.
