A sprig of lithosperm stood like a little tree laden with Dead Sea fruit, for the naked seeds clung hard and flinty where the flowers had been.

In nearly all other instances of blue or red varieties every botanist will be able to point out some allied red or blue species, as an indication of the probable source of the varietal character. Dark spots on the lower parts of the petals of some plants afford another instance, as in poppies and in the allied Glaucium, where they sometimes occur as varietal and in other cases as specific marks.
