Oriental Poppies 
A fine garden perennial flounting gay splashes of bright red or subtle tones of soft pink. Poppies are 
sturdy plants requiring a minimum of care. Be sure to plant your poppies during August and September, 
their dormant season. They begin growth in Fall and establish themselves easily for spring bloom. 
AKSARBEN: This is the newest of Mr. Sass’s poppies. It is 
about the most mammoth poppy bloom we have seen. A tre- 
mendously large beautiful shell pink with maroon spots. The 
petals are full and broad overlapping like a peony giving an un- 
usual compact rose effect. Like Sass Pink it is one of the most 
tugged poppies we grow enduring the most varied weather con- 
ditions. Most meritorious and a variety we highly recommend.
