Papaver orientate 



Papaver orientale ® 



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.
