The plant is of strong, vigorous, habit, over 5 feet high, fully one-half of which consists of much-branched pyramidical -shaped flower stems filled with light lavender-blue flowers, each \\ inches or more in diameter. It blooms from the latter part of August until the middle of October. Thompsoni. One of the most beautiful large-flowered sorts yet introduced.
