POPPIES — (Papaver). 
A brilliant and charmingly effective group of 
plants, all annuals with the exception of the 
Nudicaule varieties and P. orientate; splendid for 
garden or shrubbery decoration during Summer and 
Autumn. The Shirley and Nudicaule varieties are 
especially valuable as cut flowers, and if cut and 
placed in water as the flowers are just opening, they 
will remain in full beauty for a long time.

through innumerable tints to bright sparkling 
crimson ; the petals have a glossy, satin-like, wavy 
surface of exquisite softness, which makes the 
flowers literally ripple with colour under the 
slightest movement ... ... ... ...10
