HOLLYHOCK —BLACK PKIKCE. 



TULIP POFPY-PapaTerGlaKlii. 



A Magnificent species, producing an 

 abundance of splendid flowers of the 

 most vivid scarlet imaginable. The 

 two outer petals of the flower bear a simi- 

 larity to a saucer in which is set two erect 

 petals of the same color, forming a poudi- 

 like receptacle enclosing, and seemingly 

 protecting, the anthers. 



When the flowers begin to fade two 

 black spots are visible at the base of the 

 petals. From a mere description no ade- 

 quate idea can be gained of the strikingly 

 beautiful effect presented by a mass of the 

 plants when in full bloom. It commences 

 blooming early in June and flowers abun- 

 dantly without interruption for a period 

 of six to eight weeks. 



Sown in the open ground the seeds lie 

 for several weeks before germinating. 

 Packet, 25 cents.

NEW DOUBLE PrBK WHITE POPPY — 'WHITE SWAN. 



PURE WHITE POPPY, 



ite Swan." 



GRAND novelty. The plant grows only 

 from 1)4 to 2 feet high, forming a 

 dense, richly branching bush, surmounted 

 on strong slender stems by very large, 

 beautifully shaped flowers, very double, 

 laciniated and of the purest possible white. 

 The time of blooming is of much longer 

 duration than that of other Poppies. 

 The luxuriant green foliage and the enor- 

 mous pure white flowers of this novelty 

 make it particularly valuable for large 

 groups, but it is also very effective planted 

 singly or as a border plant.
