Meconopsis. It is truly lovely, I've tried to grow it but can't. See

WOW, thanks Ann! I may give it a try here, it's a lovely plant. I'm starting
to work into the shady fringe of woods adjoining my garden. The preserve
where I took the picture has lots of interesting special plants tucked away
in the 150 acres of gorgeous forest. I try to take the two hour walk at
least every other week. Here's another 'unidentified' friend I found quite
interesting - Best, IM

Isn't that Jack-in-the Pulpit a protected species? Or is it the white one?

Check the pH of your soil, to grow those Blue Himalayan Poppies it must be
acid (and moist but not wet).

It is a Meconopsis, a Himalayan Poppy.
This is one I have killed several times
