otliers of varying sliades, from criinsoii 

 or blood-red to pink and white. Ordi- 

 narily a packet of mixed seed suffices 

 for the small grower, but if a variety 

 of colors is specially desired, it is well 

 to buy a small packet of several named 

 sorts. 



The Iceland poppies, Papaver nudi- 

 caule, make beautiful border i)lants and 

 are splendid in the rock garden. They 

 are also fine for cutting and last better 

 in water than the well known and pop- 

 ular annual Shirley poppies. There are 

 some lovely colors, including orange 

 scarlet, jjure white and golden yellow. 

 Once established in well drained ground, 

 the Iceland poppies will perpetuate 

 themselves aliundantly from seeds. If 

 sown in early spring, many will l)loom 

 the same year. Of dwarfer and more 

 compact habit than P. nudicaule is P. 

 alpinum, the Alpine poppy. This suc- 

 ceeds well in a rockery. The plants pro- 

 duce pink, in addition to yellow, red 

 and white flowers, and attain a heiglit 

 of only ciglit or nine inches. All of the 

 Iioi)pics can be grown abundantly and 

 quickly from seeds. 



Coreopsis. 



There is no more beautiful golden- 

 yellow ])erennial flowering at this sea- 

 son than Coreopsis grandiflora. While al- 

 ways classed as a hardy perennial, it is 

 in reality a t>iennial and is best treated 

 in the same way as Canterbury bells 

 and foxgloves. It is splendid for cut- 

 ting and blooms over a long season, if 

 time can be given to cut away the seed 

 pods, which are produced in profusion. 

 Some people have trouble in wintering 

 this plant, but, given good drainage and 

 only a light winter covering, there is no 

 trouble in wintering it. Seedlings will 

 ai)pear in jirofusion around tlie old 

 ]>lants and will grow in a gravel road if 

 left alone. C. grandiflora has larger 

 and better formed flowers than C. lance- 

 olata. A graceful and strictly ])eren- 

 nial coreopsis is C. verticillata, with 

 pretty, finely divided foliage and small 

 bright golden flowers, procluced in pro- 

 fusion. This variety attains a height of 

 eighteen to twenty inches, while grandi- 

 flora reaches double that height. C. ver- 

 ticillata is better propagated by root 

 division in the fall or early spring.
