Poppy Nudicaule The Empress (Bodger) 
T O BRIGHTEN the garden in early spring you could make no better choice 
than The Empress, our new Iceland Poppy. It is distinct from all other 
strains, a remarkable new giant llowered poppy which is excellent for cutting 
and delightful in the garden. The flowers are very large and well formed, with 
broad petals which are deeply fluted or wrinkled, giving a most delightful 
effect of semi-doubleness. In color it is unique, lovely shades of salmon rose 
and pink never before seen in Nudicaule Poppies, fascinating tones to intrigue 
the imagination, by far the finest strain of pink Iceland Poppies on the market. 
The heavy stems make The Empress a fine cut flower variety, and while a 
perennial, it blooms readily from seed the first year if sown early.
