Hi ANDERSON’S Giant Shirley Poppies 
A great advance in single annual Poppies. The flowers are immense, often 4 
inches across, the petals are fluted and crinkled and in the sunlight appear like 
rumpled satin. The plants are well branched, about 12 inches high, and bloom in 
continuous succession for weeks. There are white, white-splashed crimson, rose 
banded with white, salmon, carmine, blush, scarlet, and many splashed, striped, 
dotted, edged, etc. If cut in the bud state and the stems put in water, the flowers 
will open as well as on the plant, and the effect of a vase of Shirley Poppies is im¬ 
mensely graceful and beautiful.
