Description
Meconopsis, also widely known as Himalayan Blue Poppies, produce the most striking sea-blue, poppy-like flowers with a gorgeous contrasting golden centre.
Their 10cm wide blooms will have a stunning impact in your garden and as perennials they will come back year after year, after year. These little beauties will add stunning impact and a definite wow factor to your flower beds and borders this summer!
As they are perennial plants they come back year after year with bigger and better displays for many years, growing up to an impressive 120cm.
Whether grown as a stand-out feature in a border, dotted through a woodland-style garden, or planted in drifts for a mass of blue, the Blue Himalayan Poppy is a plant that always attracts admiration.
Top Tips
For best results, plant in a partially shaded space, with shelter from cold and dry winds.
Care Information
Planting Advice:
- Plant in well prepared soil, and add a small amount of manure or organic matter.
- Ensure soil is moist and well drained.
- Soil should be neutral to slightly acidic.
- Space each plant roughly 30cm apart to allow for growth room.
Pruning Advice:
- In the later weeks of autumn, cut Blue Himalayan Poppy down to the base.
Delivery Information
Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.
Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.
We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.
Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.
Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.
Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
