Vars. hybridum, purpiireum and rubrum are live American trade names representing forms -with dark purple foli- age, the last-named variety being said to retain its pur- ple color all summer. All the forms are suitable for the front rows of borders and for rockeries. The young shoots in spring are pretty objects and differ with the different varieties. The larger forms with bright fls. are preferable. S. pur- piireum and piirpitrascens, Koch, are varieties of >S. Telephium. Subspecies Fabaria, Masters {S. JPa- bdria, Koch, not Hort.). This is regarded by Masters as a subspecies of S. Tele- phium., with Ivs. narrower than in the type, the cymes always terminal and shorter peduucled: fls. smaller and earlier; petals less recurved. It is doubtful whether this is really in the trade. See ^. spectahile. 8. telephoides, Michx.
