POPPIES (Papaver)—Quite a number of the perennial varieties bloom 
the first year from seed if sown early. Sown in May, and several times

do not take kindly to transplanting. Cover very lightly, and firm the 
soil with a flat board. When large enough thin out the plants. A 
sandy loam and early spring sowings produce the best flowers.
