Oriental Poppy 



Lar^e Oriental Poppies 



PRIMUI^A VERIS (English Cowslip) 



These are one of the most beautiful and interesting of 

 our early spring flowers. Plant them in rich, well-drained 

 soil in the border or in a sheltered nook in the rockery; if 

 possible, in a half shady place. We offer plants grown 

 from a select strain of seed, embracing a fine range of 

 colors. 25 cts. each; $2.50 per doz.; $15.00 per 100. 



PYRETHRUItt HYBRIDUM 



This grand old-fashioned Hardy Perennial is easy to grow 

 in any good garden soil where there is good drainage and 

 full exposure to the sun. They prefer to be left undis- 

 turbed for two or three years, and if given an annual top 

 dressing of well-rotted manure flower generously. Their 

 main season of blooming is in June, but if the first crop 

 of flower stems is removed as soon as finished they will 

 give a fair sprinkling of flowers during the summer and 

 autumn months. The fine fern-like foliage of the plants 

 is attractive at all times. 



Single=f lowering. The plants which we offer embrace 

 all the colors from deep red through the various shades 

 of rose to pure white. These can be supplied in mixed 

 colors only. 30cts. each; $2.50per doz.; $18.00 per 100. 



PYRETHRUM ULIGINOSUM 



(Giant Daisy) 



Grows 3 to 4 feet high and is covered with large white 

 Daisy-like flowers, 3 inches in diameter, from July to Sep- 

 tember. 30 cts. each; $2.50 per doz.; $18.00 per 100. 



R ANIINCU1,IIS (Crow-Foot. Buttercup) 



(Papaver Orientale) 



These are the regal representatives of this popular genus, 

 growing 3 to 3| feet high, and far surpassing in splendor of 

 bloom all the annual and biennial kinds, and for a gorgeous 

 display of rich and brilliant coloring nothing equals them during 

 their period of flowering in May and June, and whether planted 

 singly or in masses their large flowers and freedom of bloom renders them 

 conspicuous in any position. They are of the easiest culture; almost any 

 kind of soil suits them, but they do best in deep, rich loam; set the plants 

 out in fall or early spring before the first of May — give them water 

 occasionally during dry spells in the early part of the season; mulch with 

 stable litter in fall, and they will increase in size and floriferousness for 

 several years. After flowering the plants die back, usually reappearing ia 

 early September, or as soon as the weather gets cool. During this resting 

 period care should be taken in cultivatinf the beds that the roots are not 

 disturbed, any disturbance at this time usually resulting in failure.
