PAPAVER — ORIENTAL POPPY 
The oriental poppies make a more brilliant 
display in the garden than any other variety of 
hardy perennials. They are of easy culture and 
bloom in May and early June. Once the plants 
are established, they increase in size from year 
to year. Poppies planted together with ‘Baby’s 
Breath” make an excellent combination. When 
the foliage of the poppy dries up in midsummer, 
the “Baby’s Breath” takes its place. 
For best results. plant poppies 3 inches deep in 
July or August. When planted, the crowns 
should be 3 inches below the surface. Mulch 
with leaves or other material for the first winter 
after planting.
