a much longer period than the taller kinds, wliicli produce a ooinparativoly small number of spikes, and, moreover, the lower part of the older spikes arc so* 
hidden by those of later development that the seed pods resulting from the earlier flowers, which are so unsightly in the case of the tall strains, are not seen. 
We have a very fine strain about six inches in height, and furnished with large numbers of spikes bearing flowers distinguished by their large size and 
effective colouring.
