RE: what's in bloom now


Hi Tracey,

I love poppies.  What colors are Garden Party(Huge!), 
Sinbad, and Marcus Perry?

I have a mauvey dusky purple one that is new to me from Jackson & Perkins,
of all places (a rose grower here in the US).  No name on it -- long story
-- I won't order perennials from them again.

Susan Saxton, zone 6b
For mine is a little old fashioned garden where the flowers come
together to praise the Lord and teach all who look upon them to do
likewise.
Celia Thaxter

I AM in shape.  ROUND is a shape!
