Eschscholtzia - 
California Poppy 
Hardy Annual. Helg-ht 1 Foot. 
A beautiful free flowering 
plant, blooming profusely from 
early summer until frost. If 
sown in the fall it will bloom 
from spring until fall. The 
glaucous green finely cut foli¬ 
age forms a splendid back¬ 
ground for the large poppy¬ 
like flowers, in color from 
creamy-white through shades 
of yellow and rose to orange. 
Perennial Delphinium 
Pew plants are so handsome in the garden as the perennial Larkspurs. 
There are many species in cultivation, but the most important are the tall 
hybrids, of which there are many varieties with a wonderful range of color. 
They are valuable for their great variety in height, varying from 1 to 6 ft.; 
for their great variety in shades of color, varying from the palest laven¬ 
der through every conceivable shade of blue to deep indigo. They thrive in 
almost any situation or soil and are easily increased, being perfectly hardy. 
A good, deep, rich soil will repay with larger and better flowers. Remove 
the flower before the seed pods form and they will flower later in season 
again.
