Iceland Poppy (^Papaver Nudicaule). 



ICELA^ND 

 POPPIES. 



These i)oppies range in 

 color from the purest satiny 

 white and yellow to the 

 deepest glowing orniige- 

 scarlet, and have a delicious 

 Lilac-like fragrance. 'Hie 

 plants form very ornamental 

 tufts of Fern-like foliage, 

 from amongst which the 

 slender flower stalks rise to 

 about a foot in height, and 

 bear elegant cup-shaped 

 flowers, the petals of which 

 glisten like crushed satin. 

 The profusion of blooms 

 which they produce is really 

 astonishing, often a hundred 

 flower stems on a single 

 plant, and they are pro- 

 duced in never-ceasing suc- 

 cession from the beginning 

 of June to October. Not 

 only are these Poppies at- 

 tractive in the garden, but 

 for elegance in a cut state 

 they are simply unsurpassed. 

 Mixed colors, 15 cts. each; 

 $1.50 per doz.
