THE LUPINE. 

 Lupinus albus, L. 

 Hind. Turmas. Punjab Bakla-misrie. 



This well-known annual herb, a native of the Levant, is 

 cultivated in some parts of India. It is much grown in some 

 parts of Europe, particularly in Germany, where several varieties 

 of L. albus, and two or three other species, are cultivated mainly 

 for the sake of the seeds.
