New Iceland Poppies < 
While Iceland 
Poppies are hardy 
perennials, tbey 
flower t li e flrst 
year from seed, 
bloomlngf almost 
as quickly as the 
annual sorts. 
They are of 
graceful neat habit 
with bright green 
fern-like foliage, 
formed 1 n tufts 
from which issue 
slender stalks 
about 15 inches 
high, bearing their 
brilliant flowers in 
endless profusion. 
Most useful for 
cutting, for which 
purpose pick when 
in hud. If the seed 
pods are picked 
off, they continue 
in flower the en¬ 
tire season. They 
remain evergreen 
throughout the 
winter, coming 
into bloom early 
the following 
spring. 
Iceland Poppies 
are valuable in a 
hardy border or in 
a permanent rock 
garden. 
Poppy, Yellow Wonder—Extra large flowers, extra long stems. 
Iceland Poppy “YcllOW Wondcr” 
Introducer’s Description 
Burpee’s Yellow Wonder Iceland Poppy is longer stemmed, larger flowered and more 
vigorous growing than any Iceland Poppy we have ever seen. 
The showy, cup-shaped flowers grow about 4 inches across, are rich lemon-yellow 
changing to bright buttercup-yellow with lighter centers—the clear yellow color is made 
especially vivid by the silky sheen of the broad, round petals. 
Plants are strong growing and very free flowering; the foliage is rich bluish green 
and deeply lacinated. Yellow Wonder Poppy is most outstanding—the color is distinct and 
desirable, but the most attractive feature is the long, strong stems which grow about 2 
feet high in ordinary good garden soil and even more in rich soil and under ideal cli¬ 
matic conditions. It is showy in the garden and lovely for cutting. Pkt. 20c.
