A recent addition. I dug out an epimedium and found a very wet piece of ground in shade, so I'm hoping to persuade meconopsis to grow for me.

Driad - meconopsis x cookei is a hybrid of M. quintuplinervia (which has lilac flowers) and M. punicea (with scarlet flowers). The latter is an annual. Both are related to the blue meconopsis, also the yellow Welsh poppy.
