PHYSOSTECIA CRANDIFLORA VIVID TALL TYPE. Similar in color 
to the well known Crandiflora Vivid. Due to its longer stems this 
variety can be used in larger floral arrangements, the violet 
mauve color blending in well with other flowers. This is really a 
worthwhile Physostegia. It is very valuable also from the stand¬ 
point of continuously flowering for a long period.
