POPPIES. 



Annual Poppies should be sown as early in ti.e spring as possible where 

 tliey are to remain, as tliey do not stand transplanting. Sow very thinly, 

 barely covering the seed. Press down firmly, and they will come up in a few 

 days. It is well to make several sowini.s at intervals to keep up a succession of 

 bloom. If picked just before expanding the flowers will last several days.
