Get Acquainted With the 
NEW ORIENTAL POPPIES 
They will give your garden a faee-lifting sueh as no other peren¬ 
nial will do. 
They produee great splashes of eolor. Masses of salmon-pink or 
deep red eombine beautifully with shasta daisies, delphiniums and 
many other perennials in bloom at the same time. The improved 
Chinese reds and glowing searlets are partieularly effeetive against 
heavy masses of evergreen or shrub foliage. 
Poppies are easily grown, perfeetly hardy, and established plants 
produce great armfuls of bloom. 
Painstaking research and hybridizing has produced heretofore 
unknown colors. No longer must you content yourself with the old- 
fashioned orange-red poppies of our grandmothers garden. These 
aristocrats of the flower world may now be had in ''Salmon,'' "Old 
Rose," "Lilac-rose," "Coral-pink," "Shrimp-pink," "Carmen," 
"Golden orange," "Flame Scarlet," shades of lavender, and many 
other shades which harmonize beautifully with other spring flowers. 
Read carefully the succeeding pages telling the proper time and 
place to plant, instructions for their care, how to arrange them in 
the garden and bouquets and how to get a sequence of bloom. 
The color descriptions marked * are taken from "Color Standards 
and Nomenclature" by Ridgway. The numeral following the name 
indicates the average height when in bloom. 
Order now, as poppies must be planted when donnant. Shipment 
of dormant roots will be made between July 15 and September 15, 
which produces best results. 
When cash accompanies order, transportation charges will be
