distinct and new colours, especially among the orange shades 
are now represented. Per pkt., -16. 1 /.- 1 / 6 . and 2/6

NEW. 
Shirley Poppy, Ryburgrh Hybrids.— 
We have a very high opinion of this fine 
strain, and thoroughly recommend it to 
our customers. A large proportion of the flowers are perfectly 
double, whilst the remainder have at least 5 or 6 rows of petals. 
A number of shades not usually found in Shirley Poppies 
have appeared in this strain, which is. if anything, stronger than 
the original type. Blooms cut immediately they are open will 
keep m water for 4 or 5 days. In many flowers, double forms 
have a heavy and inartistic appearance, but this double Poppy 
combines beauty of form with grace of outline.
