Henderson’s Giant Double 
*““BRILLIANT BLEND’ 
3455 These annual Poppies are ee luxuriant growers about 244 
feet high, bearing immense double flowers 4 to 5 inches in diam- 
eter, or as large as Peonies. Some of the flowers have broad, 
round, smooth-edged petals, and are of imposing effect; others 
have lacinated and fringed edges which add a charming grace; 
but the climaxing merit of all is the wonderfu_ variety of coloring, 
ranging from the most gorgeous crimson through innumerable 
shades to purest white; many are also striped, blended and edged 
with other colors. When grown in masses the floral panorama is 
of almost unimagined beauty. They are of the easiest possible 
culture; the seed only needs to be sown thinly in May where the 
plants are to remain. (See illustration.)

Henderson’s Giant Shirley 
A great advance in single annual Poppies. The flowers are immense, 
often 4 inches across, the petals are fluted and crinkled and in the sun- 
light appear like rumpled satin. The plants are well branched, about 
12 inches high, and bloom in continuous succession for weeks. There 
are white, white-splashed, crimson, rose banded with white, salmon. 
carmine, blush, scarlet, and. many splashed, striped, dotted, edged, etc. 
If cut‘in the bud state and the stems put in water, the flowers will open 
as well as on the pane and the effect of a vase of Shirley Poppies is 
immensely graceful and beautiful. (See illustration.)

(papaver nudicaule)

June to October, fine for cutting. (See illustration.)
