R. & J. FARQUHAR COMPANY, BOSTON. ANNUAL FLOWER SEEDS. 



POPPIES, ANNUAL VARIETIES. 



Seods of Annual Poppies should be sown in Spring as early as possible where the plants are intended to flower as they do not transplant successfully. If they 

 come up too thickly they should be thinned out to obtain the best results. It is advisable to sow at intervals for a succession of bloom.
