Leaves from Hybrid Poppies, showing unusual variations in foliage even for second generation hybrids. Blossoms vary about as much as the leaves—the habits of the plants also. These are an average random selection from about two thousand second generation seedlings.
Capsules of Second Generation Hybrid Poppies, showing series of variations from complete absence of capsules to capsules of unusual size and to double capsules of unusual size. These selected at random from about 2,000 plants. The individual plants which produce these types generally follow them in all the capsules.
