Meconopsis superba ?winter damage
« on: May 15, 2011, 09:55:46 PM »
The first 20 or so flowers on my plant of Meconopsis superba have been had deformed flowers  :'(.  The ones further down the stem look better but I do not think there is a perfect flower yet.  I hope there are some good flowers as I would like to get seed.

The lower flowers on Meconopsis superba looked better and were well dusted with pollen but all the petals blew off today.
