CARTER’S “SHIRLEY” POPPY 
(Silk or Ghost Poppy) ( Photograph greatly reduced ) 
This lovely garden annual Poppy has probably received its various names from its delicate texture 
and almost shadowy forms. The shades of colour are endless and we again offer a strain of unusual 
beauty, which has been rigidly selected from the stock of the original nominator, the Rev. W. Wilks, 
Secretary to the Royal Horticultural Society. It makes a delightful border plant, and is fine for sowing 
at the sides of grassy walks or along paths where nature’s growths give a wilderness-like effect to the 
surroundings.
