POPPIES. 
The large, showy flowers of this genus have been greatly improved 
during: recent years both in size and brilliancy. In lines or groups their 
effect is simply grand, being one perfect blaze of color all summer. Sow in 
open ground in the positions they are wanted to flower in. They do not 
bear transplanting well, and where this is absolutely necessary, as in the 
ease of the Perennial varieties, they must be lifted with a good ball of 
earth adhering to the roots and shade and water well until established.
