If Kochia scoparia has an equal among foliage plants 1 have never seen it, and I doubt if the peer of this annual exists in the plant world. Each year I grow kochias in hedges along the garden paths and as backgrounds for scarlet geranium beds, and surely no plant ever germinated more readily, attained effective size more quickly or exhibited more beautiful form and color. The kochias grow in rows as hedges, self-sown, and in the spring I simply dig up the plants I need for the season and hoe up the rest. T
