POPPIES 
OOUUKOUS MIXTIRK 
“We have taken great pains 
in making up a collection of 
Poppies that, will prodace the 
greatest display of any flower 
of its class ever offered. The 
seed grows quickly and the 
plants soon begin to bloom and 
continue to bloom for weeks 
throughout the summer. The 
flowers are immense both in 
color and size, often measur¬ 
ing 3 to 4 inches across, while 
the petals are fluted and 
crinkled, so that in the sun¬ 
light they appear like satin. 
The colors range through all 
shades, such as scarlet, salmon, 
carmine, white veiled with 
pink, striped, dotted and edged, 
white splased crimson, rose 
banded with white, blush and 
numerous shades of odd mark¬ 
ings, seldom ever known in 
Annual Poppies. Seed ean.be 
sown in early spring and will 
produce a gorgeous effect, 
especially in the forenoon of 
each day. By all means grow 
a large bed of these Poppies.

NEW A 1»11KAL PUPPY 
This is a grand new Poppy and quite a cu¬ 
riosity. We succeeded in securing the seed 
from Germany and we advise all to give it a 
trial. It is a new species from Asia Minor, 
and doubtless the finest of the open ground 
Poppies, sown in autumn it blooms from June 
through summer, bearing flowers from 2 to 
2* inches across of a fiery dark orange scar¬ 
let with black spots at base. The branching 
plants are about 16 inches high with gray 
green foliage. This is a real novelty and the 
seed is very limited. Piet., 4c.; 3 pkts.,
