HARDY PERENNIAL POPPIES 



ORIENTAL POPPIES— Oriental Poppies should be 

 sown in early spring in the open ground as soon as it 

 is fit to work. The plants disappear during July or 

 August, appearing again as soon as the weather gets 

 cool. When this fall growth stax'ts is the time they 

 should be transplanted to their permanent flowering 

 quarters. It is well to mark the places they are plant- 

 ed with a stake to insure the roots against disturb- 

 ance during their annual resting period.

ICELAND POPPIES (Papaver ISudicaule) 



While these are hardy perennials, they flower the 

 first year from spring-sown seed, blooming almost as 

 quickly as the annual sorts. They are of graceful, neat 

 habit, with bright green, fern-like foliage, formed in 

 tufts, from which issue slender stalks about 12 inches 

 high, bearing their brilliant flowers in endless profu- 

 sion; most useful for cutting, for which purpose pick 

 when in bud, and, if the seed pods are picked off, 

 continue in flower the entire season. They remain 



evergreen throughout the winter, coming into bloom 



early the following spring.

Hardy, herbaceous perennial and quite distinct from 

 the varieties of Phlox Drummondi which are annuals.
