WILLIAM N. CRAIG, WEYMOUTH 
crown rather less. Growth starts very early in the 
spring and to prevent injury to the shoots draw earth 
about them and tuck some sort of evergreen branches 
around them to protect them. Spikes will rise to a 
height of 10 feet or more on well established plants 
and their sturdy stalks from which pushes 2—3 feet 
of flowers in late May are thrilling to all flower lov¬ 
ers. Lay a piece of tar paper over crowns in winter 
to shed water although they usually do not require 
this care. Protect with salt hay or leaves over winter. 
We only offer strong flowering sized roots.
