Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture

Heracleum mantegazzianum, Sommier & Levier. A recent intro. into cultivation and said to be the finest of the genus: lvs. 3 ft. long, deeply cut into many oblong- lanceolate notched lobes, making a gigantic clump: fls. clear white, large, in umbels 4 ft. across, produced in great number. Gn. 59, p. 148: 74, p. 526. G.W. 12, p. 410; 15, p. 636.—This noble species comes from the Caucasus. Seeds were sown at Geneva, Switzerland, in 1893, germinated in 1894. and the plants were 8 ft. high, in 1896. It grows 9 ft. high, and perhaps more. Said to be of easy cult., preferring deep rich soil that is cool and damp; the roots, and especially the tap-root, should remain uninjured, and it is said that it thrives better if not transplanted, although the seedlings may be handled in pots. L.H.B.
