MATILIJA POPPY: rate rate 
Only because we have raised this sea- 
son the largest crop on record are we 
able to offer it. The hardiness rating 
of 4-5 may seem strange but well au- 
thenticated tests show that it can be 
grown up to Lake Erie by treating it 
like a herbaceous perennial, cutting it 
almost to the ground every fall. This 
gives those in colder climates a chance 
to enjoy what is generally considered 
our finest California native flowering 
shrub. Better order early as we will 
surely be sold out long before spring.

First offered to the trade last season. 
S. japonica doesn’t thrive here but this 
behaves perfectly. Leaves are larger 
and so are the bright scarlet berries 
which have developed here on plants 
only 6 inches tall. Apparently does not 
require strongly acid soil but probably 
prefers shade. The clustered flowers are 
not showy but are deliciously fragrant. 
We can find no information about its ul- 
timate size but imagine it won’t get over
