Iceland Poppies 



(Papaver Nudicaule) 



While these are hardy perennials, they flower the first 

 year from seed, blooming almost as quickly as the annual 

 sorts. They are of graceful neat habit, with bright green 

 fernlike foliage, formed in tufts, from which issues slender 

 stalks about 12 inches high, bearing their brilliant _ flowers 

 in endless profusion; most useful for cutting, for which pur- 

 pose pick when in bud, and, if the seed pods are picked off, 

 continue in flower the entire season. They remain evergreen 

 throughout the winter, coming into bloom early the foUowing 

 spring.
