FRASER'S NOVELTY POPPIES 
In this group of annual flowers there will be found many 
types of foliage and flower, any or all of which can be made 
to serve a variety of attractive uses. They can be sown in 
the open ground where they are intended to bloom and re¬ 
quire very little care to produce great spots of color in open 
areas that would be difficult to treat in any other manner.
