March 12, 2010 - Longwood Gardens: Blue Poppies are on display

The official word from Longwood Gardens--Blue Poppies are on display.

The poppies should last about two weeks. Tripod permits are issued from the Information Desk in the Visitor Center. The permits are good from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM.

In early March, Longwood's famed Blue Poppy (Meconopsis) returns to the Exhibition Hall. Usually, to see masses of blue poppies in bloom, you needed to travel to Scotland, Alaska, or the Himalayas. Not anymore. Longwood Gardens has successfully produced a stunning crop of blue poppies that decorate the Conservatory's Exhibition Hall with their unique blue blossoms.
