 Growing Meconopsis from seed is difficult Jun 23, 2010
Meconopsis betonicifolia (Himalayan blue poppy) is a plant that grows in fairly limited geographical areas and USDA growing zones. The plant thrives in Anchorage, Alaska (cold winters/cool summers mostly 60-70 degrees F) but will likely not survive in most areas in the continental U.S. because of the summer heat. Growing Meconopsis from seed is fairly challenging, particularly without good instructions. Seeds will frequently germinate, but the seedlings will damp off and die. If the summer temperature where you live exceeds 80 degrees F on a daily basis, the likelihood of Meconopsis surviving is fairly limited, at best.
This is, of course just my opinion, based on my experience with Meconopsis and the literature that I've read. I live in Anchorage and have grown Meconopsis commercially for more than 10 years.

 Seeds never germinated Apr 14, 2010
The order arrived very quickly in a few days. However, NO explanation about how to plant these special seeds was included. I planted them more than 4 weeks ago and no signs of seedlings yet.
I just found out on the internet that seeds must be in a dry paper bag inside the refrigerator for 4 weeks before you can plant them. They also need to be kept under 18° C when planted or else they die. Since I did not know this information, I did not do this before planting them.
When you sell a product, you should include some information about it, especially when it is something unusual like these seeds.
Thank you.
