POPPIES (p) (a) 
Treat your garden to a gorgeous display of color which will dazzle all who 
view it. Large, bright blooms held on slender but sturdy stems make poppies a 
favorite for cut flowers. They are either annuals or perennials which bloom the 
first year from seed. Seed for the annual species is sown in the fall or very 
early in the spring in light warm soil in an open, sunny place where plants are 
to stand and thinned out to 8 inches apart. Perennials should be sown early in 
protected seed beds for later transplanting. Do not try to transplant annual 
varieties. Do well in most any soil altho the ideal medium should be gritty 
and well drained as standing water causes the roots to rot.
