Papaver Orientale - Oriental Poppy 
Oriental Poppies are the regal representatives of this popular genus, 
growing 3 to 3% feet high, and far surpassing in splendor of bloom 
all the annual kinds. For a gorgeous display of rich and brilliant 
coloring nothing equals them during their period of flowering in May 
and June, and whether planted singly or in masses, their large flowers 
and freedom of bloom render them conspicuous in any position.

CULTURE: Almost any kind of soil suits them, but they do best in deep, 
rich loam. Set the plants out in the fall or early spring before the first of May, 
twelve inches apart. Give them water occasionally during dry spells in the 
early part of the season. Mulch with dry htter to prevent crown rot in the 
fall; and they.will increase in size and floriferousness for several years. The

August, September and October. In spring, strong plants are supplied in pots 
to imsure success.

SENSATIONAL NEW BICOLOR POPPY

“‘A sensational break in Poppies’’ is what an expert 
said when he saw Snowflame in bloom the first time 
in Our nursery. The lower half of the flower is pure 
white; the upper half a flame-orange, creating a 
most unusual and brilliant effect. The orange band 
of the upper half of the petals varies considerably 
in width with each flower, helping to increase the 
charm of this rare variety. Happily, Snowflame is 
a very strong grower, and blooms freely. It is not 
subject to any ailments or insect pests. In fact, it 
is one of the strongest growing varieties we have. 
The flowers are large and grow on stiff stems. A 
few clumps of Poppy Snowflame in your garden 
will create nothing short of a sensation. We send 
in the spring strong plants in 22-inch pots. From 
August until end of fall plantirig season, we send ~ 
field-grown roots. The pot plants are vigorous and 
most of them will bloom the first year.
