Meconopsis Regia (New) 



A grand new species discovered in 1928. It may be

 reaching under good cultivation anything from 3 to

 is particularly handsome. The long pale green leaves, 

 often 15 inches in length, become covered with soft 

 silvery hairs, forming a rosette well over 2 feet across. 

 In June the first flowers open and provide a display 

 for several weeks. The color is a beautiful soft yellow, 

 and on well-grown specimens the flowers are from 4 

 to 6 inches in diameter, enlivened by a cluster of 

 orange stamens. Its great enemy is excessive wet 

 during winter months. Trade pkt., $1.00.
