Meconopsis is a genus of flowering plants in the family Papaveraceae. It was created by French botanist Viguier in 1814 for the species known by the common name Welsh poppy, which Carl Linnaeus had described as Papaver cambricum. The genus name means poppy-like (from Greek mekon poppy, opsis alike). Himalayan species discovered later were also placed in Meconopsis. In the 21st century, it was discovered that the Himalayan species were not closely related to the Welsh poppy, which has been restored to Papaver. All species placed in Meconopsis are now native to the Himalayas and surrounding regions. They have attractive, usually blue flowers. Kailzie Gardens is a walled garden near Kirkburn in the Scottish Borders area of Scotland, in the Tweed valley, four km east of Peebles, off the B7062. The garden dates from 1812. The present owners are Steve and Susan Plag.
