Three Spikes of Dreer's De Luxe Hybrid Delphiniums 



Delphinium (Hardy Perennial Larkspur) 



Reed may be sown any time from Spring till Autumn. Sow in line soil to 

 the depth of the seed, not deeper than | inch. Firm the soil and moisten 

 thoroughly. Keep shaded and moist, with a free circulation of air at all 

 times, and examine daily to make certain that the soil is moist. In 20 days 

 the pointed seed leaves will appear, remove shade and when the true, or 

 round leaves appear, transplant to their permanent places. Keep the seedlings 

 shaded until the roots take hold and then let the sun and rain do their work. 

 Early Spring sowings will produce some flowers in the early Fall and will 

 be at their best the following Spring. per pkt.
