The Russell Lupins 
American horticulturists know the story of George Russell, an 
humble English gardener; his interest in Lupins in middle life; his 
ambition to improve the plant; his years of patient effort bringing 
him to old age; the veteran’s final success with the wonderful hybrids 
now bearing his name; colors and combinations of color that have 
never before been seen; the size of the florets, their number on a spike, 
and the length of the spike are altogether sensational. Mixture of
