With Meconopsis Baileyi Alba, the pristine tissue-like white petals surround a burnt orange centre created by the protruding stamen. Meconopsis are widely known as the 'Himalayan Blue Poppy', rare in their own right, yet not as unusual nor as seldom seen, as the unique white Meconopsis. Meconopsis flower in the late spring and early Summer. Native to the mountains of China and the Himalayas, Meconopsis grow most any place including rock gardens. The name Meconopsis means 'looking like a poppy', though the single-flowered 'Himalayan Blue Poppy' has an ethereal beauty most papavars cannot hope to achieve, to find and grow the distinctive white variety.is something very special.
