DAINTIEST OF ALL FLOWERS— SWEET PEAS! 
Shirley Poppies 
We recommend September and October as 
the best time te sow, as Poppies stand a great 
deal of cold weather. 
A. Both single and double varieties are very 
desirable for bedding and borders. The lovely 
large blooms have a beautiful silk-like crinkled 
texture, and many fine colors are included.
