Eschscholtzia (California Poppy, Gold Cups) 



This beautiful and brilliant annual has been greatly improved in recent years, and we 

 now have many beautiful and unusual colors. 



Seed may be sown at any time during the spring, the earlier the better where they are 

 to remain as they do not stand transplanting. They will grow nicely and 

 bloom profusely over a long season in any sunny position. As a subject 

 for beds of any size or as a border, their finely cut, blue-green foliage, and 

 glossy flowers of satin-like texture, make them one of the most desirable 

 annuals. As cut flowers they are very artistic, and when used for this 

 purpose, should be cut when in bud. 1 foot.
