Are you growing meconopsis in Nebraska, but don’t know when they’ll bloom?

When Do Meconopsis Bloom in Nebraska?
As you may have already guessed, there are two main factors that determine when Meconopsis will bloom: where your Meconopsis are planted & weather (time).
Bloom Time Depends on Where Your Meconopsis Are Planted!!!
When your Meconopsis will bloom will depend on exactly where it is planted in your yard or garden
In general, expect the following:
- If a meconopsis is planted in an area of your yard that receives full sun it will bloom around the same time every year or up to two weeks early due to warm weather and extra sunlight.
- If a meconopsis is planted in an area of your yard that received partial sun it will bloom around the same time every year.
- If a meconopsis is planted in an area of your yard that receives shade and is not protected from wind or rain it will bloom anywhere from 1 to 3 weeks later than its average time.
