finest strain of perennial Lupins in the

brilliant colors—self and bicolors—red, or- 
anges, pure deep yellows, and many others 
new to Lupins. Average height 2 to 3

grown from plants raised from originator’s 
seed: after first removing undesirable and 
unsatisfactory types unsuited for our cli- 
mate. It is now a beautiful mixture. Only 
fresh seed harvested in 1945 is offered.
