According to wikipedia, "The California poppy (Eschscholzia californica) is native to grassy and open areas from sea level to 2,000m (6,500 feet) altitude in the western United States throughout California, extending to Oregon, southern Washington, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, and in Mexico in Sonora and northwest Baja California.", and "Extract from the California poppy acts as a mild sedative when smoked. The effect is far milder than that of opium."
