Oriental Poppies 
The garden which does not contain a good display of the lovely 
Oriental Poppies misses the most showy of all hardy garden sub- 
jects that bloom during late spring and early summer. The huge 
flowers set against the deep green foliage never fail to receive the 
greatest admiration. Sow the seed early in the spring in the open 
where the plants are to bloom or in a special seed bed. By mid- 
summer the little seedlings will likely have disappeared from above 
the ground and it is at that time of their life that the roots can be 
transplanted with perfect safety. If moved during the spring 
there is great danger that they will not survive. Only a small ~ 
percentage of the seedlings of named varieties come true to color.
