Poppy, Paeony-flowered Double. No. 6165. 



POPPY, Annual Varieties. Papaver. The 

 Poppy is justly a favorite flower. It comes 

 so early in the summer, with its buds droop- 

 ing as gracefully as a swan's neck, then the 

 delicate tissue-like flowers rise erect and 

 boldly display their brilliant colors. Poppies 

 should be sown early in the spring where 

 they are intended to bloom, as it is difficult 

 to transplant them. 



New Brunswick, N.J. 

 Messrs. R. &' y. Farquhar Ss' Co. : 



Genllemen : I should like to say in sending 

 my small order to you this year, that I have 

 never found such satisfaction in my seeds as 

 I did last season in yours. I planted them with 

 other seed from various houses, and none 

 proved so reliable as yours. Aly Asters were 

 the pride of the neighborhood, the Poppies were 

 a. glory, the Dahlias a revelation of new va- 

 rieties, and the Marigolds were superb. I have 

 a large collection of Gladioli, but should like 

 to try some you advertise this year. 

 Yours truly, 



MRS. K. C. LA THAM.
