HASTINGS’ SUPERB MIXED POPPIES 
Gorgeous is the only v'ord that can describe the brilliancy of a bed of 
our Superb Mixed Poppies. They contain all the famous varieties in the 
widest range of color and shape. Sow very early, as seed germinate best 
when ground is cool. Scatter thinly and barely cover the small, fine seed. 
When well up thin out to 10 inches apart. They bloom better with plenty 
of room for development. Poppies should be sown where they are to re- 
main as they need no transplanting. Both single and double poppies are 
very showy fiowers and make wonderful beds and borders. California, the 
famous flower state, has great fields of poppies along the railroads and 
highways, the wonder of visitors as well as the admiration of Californians.
