Russell Lupines 
A new strain of Lupines that have literally 
shaken British horticulturists out of their habit- 
ual calm. Accustomed to seeing large shows 
and examples of skillful culture, an exhibit 
has to be out of the ordinary to cause British 
show goers and show reporters to become un- 
duly excited. The plants are ultra vigorous and 
the spikes are densely flowered. The color range 
is extraordinary, including many shades never 
before seen in lupines. The average height in 
growth is from 4 to 5 feet. A new departure 
from anything previously seen. Pkt., 35c post- 
paid. 

Balsam Double Bush- 
flowered 
Unlike the taller growing balsam, the flowers 
in this little bushflowered type are carried at 
the tips of the stems, making a show of color 
rather than of foliage. The plants are 8 to 10 
inches in height, very compact and literally 
covered with their double flowers.

dwarf. Pkt., 25c.
