RUSSELL'S LUPINES 



3 to 5 ft. tall. 

 A famous English hybridizer once pro- 

 duced the most marvelous Hybrid Lu- 

 pines that could be imagined. They 

 were, in fact, so perfect that he refused 

 to dispose of any of them, keeping their 

 beauty for his own enjoyment. How- 

 ever, he was finally induced to put 

 them on the market because of his de- 

 termination to help an unfortunate little 

 boy; thereby, the Russell Lupines came 

 into circulation, and have more than 

 justified their hybridizer's hopes. Many 

 new shades never before seen in Lu- 

 pines, and many combinations of colors, 

 such as blue and yellow, red and 

 bronze, violet and white, yellow and or- 

 ange, are produced in a riot of beauty 

 on these graceful spikes, the big flowers 

 of which open all at one time. Each 50c, 

 doz. $5.00, 100 $35.00.
