blue poppy
Azure mountain bloom
Blue poppy refers to flowering plants of the genus *Meconopsis*, native to the Himalayas and prized for their striking sky-blue petals—unusual among poppies, which are typically red, orange, or yellow.
They're notoriously difficult to cultivate outside their cool, moist mountain habitat: The blue poppy is the holy grail of alpine gardeners.
