WHITE HIMALAYAN POPPY
Meconopsis baileyi betonicifolia alba
SKU: 2236-010
Description
Meconopsis baileyi was originally called Meconopsis betonicifolia, and one of the most beautiful plants! This hard-to-find Meconopsis has silky-white flower petals, and a large golden eye. Stems are very strong, and leaves are interestingly hairy! We've reached out to a reliable breeder to obtain the seeds that we know to be true to variety. The seeds are reliable germinators as long as they are given cool temperatures (see germination instructions below). Will bloom first year from seed with an early sowing.
Very limited supply.
Type: Hardy perennial
Height: 80-90 cm
Hardiness zones: 5-9
Seeds per pack: 10
Availability: If these seeds are showing out of stock, we strongly recommend joining our wait list, as these seeds have a very shorty viability window, and this helps ensure you get the freshest seeds possible! If they are available, they will only be available for a short time.
Germination: Start these seeds right away to preserve viability, no matter the time of year. These seeds require light to germinate. Sow the seeds on the surface of a sterile seed-start mix, and water in. Keep them at 20C for germination. Do not us a heat mat or they will not grow. The seeds generally germinate in 4-6 weeks, though some can take longer so be sure to keep moist. Once germination occurs, place them in a cooler location for them to grow larger, about 15C is ideal.
