TTENDERSON'S 
GIANT DOUBLE 
=POPPIES.= 
This “ Brilliant Mixture ” of 
double annual Poppies has been made 
from exclusively improved giant 
double-flowering sorts, and none but 
the richest, most brilliant, as well as 
the daintest and loveliest shades and 
colors are included. The plants are 
sturdy, luxuriant growers about 2 Vz 
feet high, bearing immense double 
flowers 4 to 5 inches in diameter, or as 
large as Pieonies. Some of the flowers 
have broad, round, smqoth-edged 
petals, and are of imposing effect; 
others have laciniated and fringed 
edges, which add a charming grace; 
but the climaxing merit of all is the 
wonderful variety of coloring, ranging 
from the most gorgeous down through 
innumerable shades to purest white: 
many are also striped, blended and 
edged with other colors. When grown 
in masses the floral panorama is of 
almost unimagined beauty. They are 
of the easiest possible culture; the 
seed only needs to be sown thinly in 
May where the plants are to remain.

These new hybrids—the originator claims—germinate easily from seed, the plants grow¬ 
ing vigorously, and commence flowering in 6 months’ time; the following year, the plants, being 
larger, yield a greater quantity of flowers; but their prime is not reached until the third season, 
when they bloom in astonishing prodigality all summer long and continue to do so thereafter for 
years. The plants form robust bushes, and are hardy, with slight protection, in cold climates; 
about 80 per cent, of them produce large dquble flowers of all colors and shades known in Roses, 
excepting yellow; they are, moreover, delightfully fragrant, "indeed, in our opinion, they are 
the sweetest-perfumed roses in existence." Suitable either for garden or pot culture. Pkt. 25c.
