Poppies!
They're up and almost finished. These guys are all over the yard. They were there when I got the house and all they need is a good deadheading when they're done to keep them coming back year after year.
They're pretty quick. Maybe a week before they start to lose their petals. They tend to stagger over three weeks so if you have enough planted, you should have steady color for a little while. The best part of them is the low maintenance.

About how long do poppies bloom? I always like seeing them in the garden centers, but have never grown them myself.
