Hardy Oriental Poppy, Princess Victoria 
PORTULACA - Sun Plant 
This charming little hardy annual is un¬ 
rivaled for brilliancy. Nothing is prettier 
for beds, edging, and rockwork, and it is 
frequently used to sow broadcast over sunny 
banks, etc. As an undergrowth for taller 
plants it is also valuable. The seed does not 
germinate until hot weather, and should 
be sown late. Flowers richly colored, and 
produced all summer. Average height, 6 
inches. Displays of these double portulacas 
in separate colors attracted much attention 
in our Trial Grounds last season.
