LUPINS (HO 2 ft.) 
The Lupins like a little shade and a light soil but otherwise 
their culture is simple. Sow the seed outdoors after hard frosts 
are over. They make the brightest of beds, borders, and rank 
as one of the most important of cutflowers. The flowers are pea 
shaped and come in the important colors. We offer the famous 
Hartwegii strain.
