Seeds Catalogs; Nursery stock Catalogs; Gardening Equipment and supplies Catalogs; Flowers Seeds Catalogs; Vegetables Seeds Catalogs; Fruit Seeds Catalogs. '«?'''. '//^^a'-"' Pentstemon Sensation. Oriental Poppy. PAPATER ORIEI^TAI^E (Oriental Poppy.) These are the regal representatives of this popular genus, far surpassing in splendor of bloom all the annual and biennial kinds, and for a gorgeous display of rich and brilliant coloring nothing equals them during their period of flowering in May and June, and whether planted singly or in masses their large flowers and freedom of bloom render them conspicuous in any position. They are of the easiest culture; almost any kind of soil suits them, but they do best in deep, rich loam; set the plants out in fall or very early spring; give them water occasionally during dry spells in the early part of the season; mulch with stable litter in fall, and they will increase in size and floriferousness for several years. After flowering the plants die back, usually reappearing in early September, or as soon as the weather gets cool. During this resting period care should be taken in cultivating the beds that the roots are not disturbed, any disturbance at this time usually resulting in failure. We oflfer the following distinct varieties: Qoliath. Fiery scarlet. Princess Victoria Louise. Salmon-pink. Mahony. Dark crimson-maroon, shaded mahogany. Mrs. Perry. Salmon-rose. Trilby. Brilliant red. 25 cts. each; ?^ per doz. Set of 5 varieties, $ Finest Mixed Varieties. 15 cts. each; $ per doz.; $ per 100. PAPAVER (Iceland Poppy.) The plant is of neat habit, forming a tuft of bright green fern-like foliage, from which spring, throughout the entire season, a profusion of slender leafless stems 1 foot high, each graced with charming cup- shaped flowers. We offer them in three colors, viz.: white, yellow and orange-scarlet, or in mixture. 15 cts. ea
