EKremurus

and sturdy stalks, crowned poy flower spikes of two to three feet long, 
composed of ciosely set bell-shaped flowers of a pure white, a delicate 
pink or a soft yellow, are a sight which will "take your breath away’. 
lhe peculiarly shaped roots, consisting of a large solid crown, with 
long, brown, fleshy roots branching out, should be planted not over

wiil be sufficient wintercover. Sometimes they do not flower the first 
season, but once established they need no further care and will in- 
crease, provided théy are not disturbed.
