RELIABLE FLOWER SEEDS, 



\ 



Double Stock -Flowered Annual Larkspurs 



This is one of the best-known of garden flowers, and in recent years a vast 

 improvement has been effected by careful selection in size and color of the 

 blossoms and the general habit of the plant. Seeds sown in the open ground 

 before the close of April will produce flowering plants by the beginning of July, 

 and give a continuous succession of flowers from then until frost, a record that 

 is not surpassed by any other annual. They make handsome beds or lines, 

 and their free, graceful habit and bright colors are very effective when interspersed 

 in the old-fashioned flower or shrubbery border. They stand well when cut and 

 a vase of one or mixed colors is indeed charming. 3 feet. per} oz. per pkt.
