Poppies of Bhutan

I consider myself lucky when I take a look back to all those plant expeditions that I had been privileged to lead, all through those places of unsurpassed beauty in the high Himalayas of Bhutan over the years as a mountain guide, plant enthusiast, an amateur photographer and as the owner of the host tour company – Bhutan Excursions.

So here, I am sharing some of my pictures of Meconopsis species which I have seen and photographed so far in Bhutan. Perhaps, some can use these pictures as reference for studies or simply enjoy the beauty of those plants through these pictures or if there is someone out there that would love to have to show them these jewels in their natural habitat – it is us you should come to!
