Russell. This new strain of perennial 
Lupins has caused a sensation in horti¬ 
cultural circles. The long, closely furnished 
spikes come in a great variety of rich 
colors—deep yellows, oranges, reds, and 
brilliant bicolors never seen in Lupins 
before. The florets are large, with flat, 
fan-like standards, and, unlike all other 
Lupins, most of the spikes retain their 
florets throughout the whole period of 
development. We offer seed grown from 
the originator’s stock. Pkt. 25c.; 75c. per
