C. BECKERT, ALLEGHENY, PA. POPPY.—Continued. Great Wb/te California Poppy. Of supreme and stately beaut}' as an outdoor plant, yielding a long succession of bloom, flowering from July until November Of value as a cut flower, lasting well in water, and its delicate Primrose-like perfume is most acceptable in a room.

The flowers are large (4 to 5 inches across), pure white, with a fine bunch of yellow stamens. The plants attain a height of 6 to 8 feet, It will be hardy south of Washington, but north of that latitude will require cold greenhouse protection in winter, or can be kept in a light cellar.
