ANCHUSA YTALICA 
(The Improved Italian Alkanet or Bugloss) 
Although introduced only a few years 
ago the two Anchusas offered below have 
become very popular. The rich blue 
tones of their flowers fill a vacancy in this 
color, of which there is never a super- 
abundance, particularly during their 
flowering period, which covers the months 
of May and June. They form much- 
branched specimens 3 to 5 feet high, each 
branch terminated by a large, pyramidal, 
graceful spike of blue flowers, and while 
% m the habit of the plant is strong and vig- 
f ; fae =(orous it is not at all coarse. Of easy 
: m™ culture in any good garden soil and a 
sunny position. Very effective either in 
solid beds or in the hardy border.
