Cathcartia (or Meconopsis) Villosa

7 years ago, or so, I bought a package of seeds of this pLAnt at the botanicaL gARDEN GIFT SHOP. oNE GREW, AND AFTER A FEW YEARS OF REMAINING SHORT STARTED TO TAKE OFF ABOUT 3 YEARS AGO. iT IS NOW 7' TALL.

iT HAS NEVER FLOWERED.

pROBLEM IS, THAT i READ THAT IT SHOULD BE NO MORE THAN A THIRD OF ITS CURRENT HEIGHT, SO i FEAR THAT WHAT i HAVE BEEN GROWING IS SOME OTHER PLANT (AND ONE THAT WILL NEVER FLOWER). i CAN POST A PICTURE, BUT ONLY USEFUL TO DO SO IF THERE IS SOMEONE HERE WHO IS FAMILIAR WITH THIS PLANT ...
