There's a stunning field of wildflowers and poppies just north of Ovingdean if anyone is in the Brighton area. Just head up and have a look. Someone has planted the borders up with tons of them. If you walk from the bottom up towards the golf course, there's a really fantastic border full of all kinds of stuff. They've definitely been planted (or seeded) there as there's a few species you don't usually see in the wild.
