ORIENTAL POPPIES 
Spectacular, the Oriental Poppies give that brilliant touch so 
necessary in many gardens in May and June. The large, crinkled, 
single and semi-double flowers in the modern range of colors lend 
themselves to color blending far beyond the scope of the old types. 
Fall planting is best, and strong field-grown plants, given 
reasonably rich soil and a light winter covering, will produce 
strong flowering plants next spring. 
All Oriental Poppies, 40 cts. each, $1 for 3 of one variety, 
$3.25 for 10 of one variety
