Description

Four Varieties of Perennial Himalayan Poppies - 1,100 Seeds Total, Four Gorgeous Shades of Blue and Violet Tibetan Poppy The Meconopsis Lingholm variety boasts large deep cobalt blue flowers up to four inches across and is certainly the best blue 'poppy' ever available. It multiplies up each year into a massive golden-haired clump which can be divided to increase the size of the bed. Meconopsis Grandis develops large saucer flowers in deep blue that form on thick, strong stems. Quite perennial when it is happy in slightly acidic, organic soil, it is one of the classic blue flowers. Meconopsis Baileyi is the fabulous Himalayan Blue Poppy" previously known as 'MECONOPSIS BETONICIFOLIA' forms clumps of hairy leaves from which arise strong stems carrying heads of silky, kingfisher-blue, almost transparent petals with golden eyes. This is one of the most beautiful garden plants. The Meconopsis Bailey 'Hensol's Violet' variety boasts violet-purple flowers with a hint of red adorning this quite exquisite variant of the "Himalayan Blue Poppy". Coming quite true from 'seed', it surprises countless poppy-lovers who have never before seen this unusual plant. Sowing Advice Seeds can be sown at any time, but for a full season of growth are best sown in trays in early spring. Cover seeds very thinly in a cool spot. Artificial heat is rarely needed as these seeds are acclimated to germinating in cold climates and excess heat can cause rapid germination and fungal attack. Seedlings usually appear within 3 to 6 weeks but can take much longer. Plant in a shaded, moist, peaty or organic soil. Himalayan Poppies do not like direct sunlight. We Ship to US Addresses Only.
