Lol GL!! I can't tell if that's a poppy. It looks more like a California poppy to me. Do you have a picture that shows some foliage?

If the leaves in the background belongs to the flower, it can't be a Cali poppy.

Show us the leaves please.

looks like some sort of calochortus species to me but again, if the leaves in the background belong to the same plant, we may be talking about something altogether different. The reproductive structures are not that of a poppy, they're more "tulipy" than anything else which is why I'm leaning towards calochortus.

I agree with Jerseyguy it does look like a Calochortus.

Heres a link to some pictures, you may have to look on the old Autumn list for them.

Wow jimmie, this is an old thread you have dug up! LOL!

I would go with Calochortus, possibly Calochortus splendens,
