.\n extremely beautiful
large annual Popp.v —
probably the finest single
annual variety in culti-
vation; the flowers
measure 4 to 5
inches across,
are pure satiny
white, shading
towards the mar-
gin into an exqui-
site salmon rose,
deepening at the edge.
The sturdy plants grow 2% feet
high, and flower in extravagant
abundance for a long period the
first season from seed. AVe saw a
large block of these grand Poppies

in bloom in Germany the past sum-

mer, and they were a perfect
picture, commanding admiration
from all. (See cut.) Pkt. 20

This "Brilliant Mixture" of newdouble
ennual Poppies is the finest that can he made;
the seeds have been selected with greatest care
from exclusively improved giant double-flower- i:
ing sorts, and none but the richest, most brilliant, '-;
as well as the daintiest and loveliest shades and
colors are included. The plants are sturdy,
luxuriant growers, about 2V4 feet high, bearing
immense double flowers 4 to5inchesin diameter, •::
or aslarge aspaponies. Someoftheflowershave .
briiad.round, smooth-edged petals, and areof Impos-
ing effect; others have laciniated and fringed edges,
■which addacharmlnggrace, but theclimaxing merit ^ '
of all is the wonderful variety of coloring. rangingfrom ■ ' j
the most gorgeous crimson-purpletointensedazzling
crimson-scarlet down through innumerable shades
of carmine, rose, pink, blush, salmon, flesh to purest satin
white; many of the flowers are also striped, blended and
edged with other colors. Almost every tint one can con-
ceive may be found in Henderson's Giant Double Poppies,
and when grown in large masses the floral panorama is of almost unimagined
beauty. They are of the easiest possible culture; the seed onlj' needs to besowu
thinly in May in the garden or border where the plants are to remain. Hen-

in continuotis succession for

tints and markings are pro-
duced in limitless variety and
are most exquisite. There are
glistening pure white, white
veiled with pink, white veined
and splashed with crimson,
rose banded with white, sal-
mon, carmine, blush, glowing
scarlet and many other colors,
splashed, striped, dotted and
edged in the most charming
confusion Pkt. 10

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.
