Delphinium (Hardy Larkspur) 
The culture of Delphiniums is exceedingly simple. 
They thrive in almost any position, a rich, friable loam 
suits them finely; but any soil, even hot and sandy, 
if well watered and manured, will*give excellent re- 
sults. Placed in lines, as a background to a border, 
or in groups of, say, three plants at intervals, the 
effect of the Delphinium is exceedingly fine. A suc- 
cession of flowers may be expected from spring to 
early autumn, especially if the spikes which have 
flowered early are cut down to the ground; fresh 
growth will then be produced which will give blossoms. 
Watering in summer will increase size of spike and 
flower. Plants increase in size and in beauty year 
after year.

Roots are ready for delivery from May 1 to June 1. 
Place your order early, and we will send them when ready. 
Flowers pure white and fragrant; widely popular. It is 
only necessary to set the roots in the mud, where the water 
is sluggish in the stream, after which the plant will require 
no further attention. Perfectly hardy, living in ponds or 
streams all winter. Where a stream or pond is not easy 
of access, roots can be grown in a tub, removing the tub 
to the cellar over winter.

Buddleia, Variabilis Magnifica 
(Everblooming Butterfly Bush or Summer Lilac) 
The above names are applied to this plant because the flowers resemble those of 
the Lilac and attracts butterflies in large numbers, particularly the large and gorge- 
ously colored ones which swarm about it as though vying with it in brilliancy of 
eolor. The long, graceful stems terminate in tapering panicles of beautiful lilac- 
colored flowers that are of miniature size and borne by the hundreds on a flower 
head which is frequently 12 to 15 inches long. Begins to bloom in July and continues 
till severe frost. Succeeds everywhere; flowers freely the first year. Really a shrub, 
but the top usually freezes back and new growth starts from the root like other 
perennials. If tops do not freeze back, the plant should be severely pruned each 
spring hefore growth starts. 
Strong, field-grown roots, 75 cts. each; 3 for $2.00; 6 for $3,753; $7.00 per dozen, postpaid
