HYBRID DELPHINIUMS 



On these two pages are the strains of hybrid Delphin- 

 iums that we have found to be the most outstanding. All 

 these give magnificent blooms with spikes of flowers 

 often 4 to 5 feet high or even more. By ordering the 

 separate named series of Pacific Hybrids, you can select 

 just which colors you wish to grow. If you plant some of 

 each series offered, you will very well cover the entire 

 range of Delphinium color as it has been developed to date. 



ENGLISH HYBRIDS 



Blackmore & Langdon Hybrids. The finest Eng- 

 lish strain of Delphiniums. Colors from deep violet 

 to pale lavender with countless shades between. 

 Closely set florets on strong, 4 to 5-foot spikes. 



HIGHLIGHT 



There is no flower that can compare with 

 Delphiniums for stately splendor in a garden. 

 No other flower can equal their striking 

 spire-like form or their glorious range of 

 colors through all the beautiful blue tones. 

 Delphiniums have a noble dignity that is all 

 their own. Their great blue spires give con- 

 trast of both form and color to most other 

 garden plants, and so add interest to a whole 

 planting. Also, they bloom twice a year — 

 in June and again in September — for which 

 we owe them double gratitude.

Except as noted, all Delphinium 

 Hybrids are 6 for $1.75; 12 for $2.95; 

 25 for $5.75, postpaid, for each sepa-

 different series, see offers. 



NOTE : Because we have kept the price 

 low, we cannot supply these Delphinium 

 plants in quantities of less than 6 to an 

 order, or 3 of the newest kinds, as noted. 

 At these low prices, however, you can 

 afford to plant them in quantity and have 

 a real Delphinium show right in your own 

 garden. 



DELPHINIUM CULTURE: Plant in 

 deeply spaded, fertile garden soil in a well- 

 drained, sunny location. Set the crown of 

 the plant level with the surface of the bed 

 and do not use manure where it will touch 

 the roots; lime well mixed with the soil 

 is usually beneficial. Space all these hy- 

 brids at least 18 inches apart. 



PACIFIC HYBRIDS 



Galahad Series. The finest pure white, 

 with white "bees" and heavy, glistening 

 white petals. Large individual flowers on huge 

 spikes of bloom. 



Blue Jay Series. Clear blue, from medium to dark, 

 with black "bees." Here is about the truest blue to

Guinevere Series. Pink-lavender shades with white 

 "bees." Big spires, with very large individual 

 florets. 



King Arthur Series. Rich, royal purple with velvety 

 texture and white "bees." One of the most brilliant; 

 on beautiful, long spikes. 



Summer Skies Series. The heavenly blue of sum- 

 mer skies with white "bees" like fleecy clouds. The 

 finest light blue Delphinium.
