POPPIES, Papaver 
Poppies have long been favorite garden flowers for their 
delicacy, as well as the simplicity of the buds and neatness of 
the foliage. The pure colors and fine texture of the petals 
make a good showing in the garden. All are easily raised from 
seed which should be sown where the plants are to remain, 
later thinning out the plants. In the North, sow in the open 
ground as early as possible in the spring; in California, sow 
from October to March.
