ROMNEYA?COULTERI. 
Great White California Poppy. A fine perennial of stately 
beauty, flowering from July until November. Valuable as a cut 
flower, lasting well in water; of delicate Primrose-like perfume. 
‘The texture of the petals is extremely delicate, almost half trans- 
parent, never losing the erumpled Poppy-like folds. Our collector 
aorites: ‘If you could only see these plants, now in bloom, I am sure 
you would agree with me that there is no finer perennial grown. At 
first [took them to be large single white Pawonias, as they resemble them | 
very much in foliage as well as in the flowers ; the latter are large (4 to 
5 inches across), pure white, with a fine bunch of yellow stamens. The 
plants attain a height here of 6 to 8 feet.” It will be hardy south of 
Washington, but north of that latitude it will require cold green- 
house protection in winter, or it can be kept in alight cellar. (See 
cut.) Per packet, 15 cts.
