STOCK FLOWERED 
ROSAMOND 
Rosamond is a pure rose 
color, a shade which has been 
entirely lacking in larkspurs 
up to this time. All other 
rose varieties have faded 
badly, but this one has that 
rare quality of holding the 
pure rose color until out of 
flower. It is very uniform in 
height, and comes into flower 
two weeks earlier than other 
stock flowered varieties.

and the general habit of the plant. Hardy annuals.
