Dreer’s 
Giant Pacific Hybrid 
Delphinium «= 
The Sensational 
New Strain 
from the Pacific Coast 
Originator’s Stock 
The overwhelming response to this new strain of Delphinium has 
now reached unprecedented proportions. They are truly sensational 
in every respect and reports from many different sections of the 
country as well as from abroad are unanimous in their unstinted praise. 
‘“‘The Most Beautiful Delphinium 
I have ever seen” 
These are the very words of one of our own experts when he first 
saw them on the Pacific Coast. His opinion is shared by others who 
say ... amazingly fine precision of placement of florets. . . rarely a 
single . . . nicely formed bees ... fine foliage... unusual uniformity of 
habit . . . marked disease resistance . . . impressive tall spikes of 
slightly tapering formation. Plants with white bees predominate. 
These Giant Pacific Hybrids certainly stand out as the showiest 
and most glorious of all Delphinium.
