I wasn't sure which areas to click on, but did see a Meconopsis which was my first thought when I read your message about blue flowers.

Some species are available but conditions to grow them can be very tricky. We cannot grow them in the mid-Atlantic area or south. Parts of Maine have a climate that suits them and some of the Pacific northwest. Our summers are too hot and humid. Maritime climates seem to work well.

Blue poppies are sold by garden centers here. You need a non-windy site with protection from hot summer sun but little tree drip on the plants and a moist rich soil. Mites and slugs need to be kept at bay. First year seedlings of the most commonly offered M. betonicifolia must be kept from flowering the first year or they are liable to die afterward. Induced to instead form vegetative sideshoots by cutting out the flower stalks before they are able to bloom these plants may then live to flower annually for some years.

Other blue kinds offered less often are naturally perennial.

The hairy foliage and short stature makes me think it is Meconopsis horridula.

Thank you all very much for the information. I appreciate your help very much.
