Dear sir;
We are growing a Pentstemon that is causing us some confusion. I
only know it by the name of Garnet King* I believe it is sold
by the Page Hill Nursery in your locality under that name also.
0an you inform me concerning the parentage of this Pentstemon?
It is our desire to start a e^Heetion of the Pentstemon for
our campus. 33iey seem to thrive under our conditions and bio cm
for a long time* We have had Garnet King and heterophyllus on
the hill for several years un^er conditions that are a trifle
rugged, fhey grow well each year and make a fine display. If
there áre many others that perfoim as well I feel that they
should be brought to the attention of the gardening public.
Í am enclosing a small portion of the Pentstemon Garnet King
for your inspection. Should you wish more we have ample availa-
ble.
Yery truly yours^,
