THE TULIP POPPY,—PAPAVER GUAUCUM. New Tulip PoppvJ. Its specific name refers to its bluish-green leaves, which are broadly pinnate or lobed. The plants ^row vigorously twelve to fourteen inches high. The perfect and striking flowers are intensely vivid in color; the two outer petals form a tulip-cup, in which the inner petals are erectly set, forming a pouch-like receptacle, seemingly to protect the anthers; after a time deep black spots appear at the base of each petal. A mere gives no adequate idea of the superb color-effect presented by a bed or clump of this grand new Poppy. Tlie deeply glowing scarlet of the large flowers is such that one is quickly reminded of the superb Due Von Thol Tulip. Per pkt. 10 cts.; 3 pkts. for ;) Giant Paeon\J=Flowercd.
