Russell Lupins 
{Perennial) 
The highest possible R. H. S. award, 
the Gold Medal, was never more richly 
deserved than when won by this strain 
in June, 1937. It is the outstanding 
plant, being offered from seed in 1938. 
You will be thrilled with the marvelous 
colorings and rich exotic blendings in 
scores of shades and colors. Other out¬ 
standing features are the length and 
symmetry of the spikes, the bold, close¬ 
ly placed florets, the wide, fanlike back 
standards and large keels, and the fact 
that the spikes hold their florets from 
top to bottom during development. 
Added to all these outstanding points is 
the fact that 3 per cent will come in a 
dwarf strain. When these dwarfs are 
fixed. Lupins will replace Delphiniums 
for popularity in this country. Never 
plant Lupins in newly manured ground 
and only transplant Lupins in the 
Spring. Seed offered in mixed colors.
