Annette---those are buds, and they will bloom for you in a day or two. Icelandic poppies tend to bloom for a very, very long time, so it makes sense that these same plants were just blooming for you in the fall--and that they are now going to bloom again for you. I agree---the foliage and the fact that they are behaving as a biennial or even perennial makes me agree that they are Icelandic poppies. Papaver nudicaule. Here is a pic of some of my IPs from last summer. I'm looking forward to a repeat performance from them.
