Poppies are among the most interesting of 
the garden flowers with vivid colors and fern¬ 
like foliage. Annuals should be sown as early 
in spring as possible, in the location where they 
are to remain, as they do not transplant suc¬ 
cessfully. Seed should be just barely covered, 
although firmly pressed down. Thin out to 3 or 
4 inches between plants; and take time to 
remove old flower stems.
