POPPIES 
ORIENTAL POPPY (Papaver Orientale) 
For brilliance of color nothing- exceeds the Oriental poppies during their period of 
blooming in May, June, and early July. They increase in size and effectiveness for 
several years, with strong slender flower steins growing from 21/4 to 3i/4 feet. If 
planted in August or September or early in the spring before there is much new growth, 
there need be no fear about their growing.
