Russell Lupines 
Plant this Spring for fine bloom. Lupines are one of 
the finest and most colorful border plants. Blooms June 
and July. Lupines should be planted deep, so the top of 
the crown is covered with about two inches of soil. They 
like sun but will thrive in partial shade. They like an acid 
soil. If your soil is not acid then you should work in about 
an eighth of a pound of common Epsom salts or alumin-~ 
ium sulphate around each plant.
