    The document summarizes the fruit formation of poppy and campion plants. Poppy and campion both produce hard, dry capsules as fruits, unlike soft fruits like tomatoes and blackberries. The poppy fruit has openings that allow seeds to escape, while the campion fruit has teeth that curl out in dry weather to shake seeds out when blown by the wind.
