_Editor Mayflower:_
The Blue Palm is one of the very pretty varieties planted upon the
choicest lawns. Its correct name is Erythea Armata, and it is a native
of Lower California, that part of the country so little known. In the
young plants, the blue "bloom" is very striking, and if the Palm is
grown in the sun in sandy soil the "bloom" will always remain, but a
shaded position and heavy soil destroys that beautiful color. It grows
to about forty feet in its wild state, but does nothing like that in
Southern California. It makes however a beautiful growth and adds to the
beauty of a lawn, whether alone or arranged with other
varieties.--_Georgina S. Townsend, So. Cal._
