less you add 25c extra for handling charges and postage. 
ORIENTAL POPPIES (True Perennials) 
Best Planted in August 
For brilliant colors, nothing equals the Oriental Poppy during 
their flowering period. May and June. Often they blossom again 
in the fall. 
Breeders have succeeded in creating colors never dreamed of, 
such as “Golden Orange” (Gold of Ophir), “Coral Pink” (Pink 
Radiance), "Pure White” (Perry’s Whites), “Carmine Pink” 
(Wunderkind) and many other shades. 
They should be planted during July and August with the 
German Iris, when they are dormant, and if moved then they 
will thrive. If planted in the spring when growth is active, they 
will sulk for a long time. SO REMEMBER, PLANT THEM IN 
THE LATE SUMMER. They like full sun and good soil. 
All of our plants are propagated from root cuttings of the 
parent plant and are true to name. THEY ARE NOT SEED¬ 
LINGS. 
WHAT TO BUY? We have too many new named varieties^— 
dozens of new seedlings are coming annually into commerce, and 
are listed by their only distinctive feature which is their name. 
We are listing below a few of the best and most outstanding 
colors, and we assure our customers buying these modern hybrid 
poppies that they will not be disappointed.
