Here's a photo of Meconopsis betonicifolia in bloom. It was a better performer than M. Lingholm this year, for some reason. I harvest the seeds, give them a day or so to dry, then put them in the freezer. They should be planted fresh or just out of the freezer. I successfully started two or three trays of them indoors this spring, and the plants are coming along nicely. Those that survive the winter should bloom next year. In a climate that isn't kind to many of the beautiful plants from warmer climes, it is nice to have such an exotic growing here.
