Title: Meconopsis betonicifolia in Jianchuan, is it easy to find?
Post by: arisaema on June 13, 2011, 09:34:35 AM

Not sure where this topic is best placed, but figured this forum gets the most readers ;)

I'm leaving for China tomorrow, and was hoping to stop by Jianchuan to look for this population (http://www.meconopsis.org/miscdocs/AGS_Bulletin_pg217_225.pdf) of Meconopsis betonicifolia. Anyone know if it's easy to find, and if it's north or south of Jianchuan town?
