Really interesting, and pretty color. Reminds me of some disorganized/solitary corals, or tops of coral colonies which were weathered. Are there any indications of structure inside those blobs? Do they go through to the back? If not, I've also seen some fossil algae and fossil tree fern with similar color and diffuse pattern, which might be another possibilities.

The colors and "blobs" instantly said Stony Creek CA jasper material to me. I've seen it before just like this where the poppies don't quite take a perfectly defined shape. I'll try to scare up a photo of some similar stuff I had.

Here's the material I had in mind. I collected this at Stony Creek/Burris Creek at the Black Butte Reservoir. There is a lot of very similar material in the area, some of which just has white spots that never quite became poppies.

I do believe you are right. Knew it looked familiar but couldn't quite place it.

Looks like one of those N. California interior coast range poppies like Stony Creek, Snow Mtn etc.
