NEW RICINUS OR CASTOR OIL PLANT "RED SPIRE" 3867 A visitor to our Nurseries a year ago declared our planting of this to be the most effective and ornamental feature in the establishment. The shapely, bushy plants attain a height of about 6 feet, with pretty palmate leaves of a bronzy green with prominent red ribs and veins, and producing through the summer and autumn numerous spikes of flowers or seedpods 9 to 18 inches long, of a brilliant rosy crimson; altogether a most effective semi- tropical plant, valuable alike for its foliage and flowers and hke other Ricinus, absolutely insect-proof. As single specimens or in beds on the lawn, for filling up a corner, or making a hedge or line, this is one of the most ornamental plants ever introduced. 15 cts. per pkt.; 40 cts. peroz.
