EVERYTHING FOR THE GA3RDE
HENDERSON'S GIANT DOUBLE POPPIES
"BRILLIANT BLEND"
These Annual Poppies are sturdy, luxuriant
growers about 23^ feet high, bearing immense
double flowers 4 to 5 inches in diameter, or as
large as Peonies. Some of the flowers have broad,
round, smooth-edged petals, and are of imposing
effect; others have laciniated and fringed .edges
which add a charming grace; but the climaxing
merit of all is the wonderful variety of coloring,
ranging from the most gorgeous down through
innumerable shades to purest white; many are also
striped, blended and edged with other colors. —
When grown in masses the floral panorama is of almost
unimagined beauty. They are of the easiest possible
culture; the seed only needs to be sown thinly in May
where the plants are to remain. (See cut.)
"Brilliant Blend" Mixture.
Per 1,000 seeds, 25c; Per oz. 50c.;- PR 10c.
"Henderson's Giant Double Poppies are gloriously
grand — such immense double flowers, and such a variety
of colorings."
Mrs. GEORGE ROBERTS, Chambersburg, Pa.
Henderson's Giant Shirley
or Majestic Poppies
A great advance in single annual Poppies. The
flowers are immense, often 3 to 4 inches across, the
petals are fluted and crinkled and in the sunlight appear
like rumpled satin. The plants are well branched, about
12 inches high, and bloom in continuous succession
for weeks. There are white, white-splashed crimson,
rose banded with white, salmon, carmine, blush, scarlet,
and many splashed, striped, dotted, edged, etc. (.See cut.)

Double "FEATHERBALL" POPPIES
These double-fringed annual Poppies are very beautiful; they belong to
the Carnation-flowered type, the large flowers having the same globe-
shaped formation, with gracefully fringed-edged petals like big balls of
slashed tissue paper or feathers; plants of dwarf branching growth only
15 to 18 inches high, each plant carrying several of these large exquisite
flowers.

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.


This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
