Delphinium (Perennial Larkspur) 

 We offer three distinct types of this popular 

 flower: The hybrids provide the long spikes 

 of beautiful bloom so pKjpular for exhibition 

 purposes; cut down after the first bloom, they 

 will repeat in autumn. The Belladonna type 

 is desirable to cut for mixed bouquets and 

 blooms all season with the dwarf Chinensis 

 providing desirable blue for bedding and cut- 

 ting material all season. Delphiniums require 

 rich soil in full sun.

 riouble antl double blooms in shades of 

 blue, lavender, and purple. 4 to 5 ft.

 it produces several crops of exquisite blue 

 flowers. 1 5 in. 

 Lamartine. Brilliant marine-blue. 3 to 4 ft.

 outstanding new strain with many shades 

 of huge florets beautifully spaced on strong 

 spikes. Mildew-resistant. The best Del- 

 phinium plants in existence. 3 for 51.35. 



Dianthus (Fragrant Pinks)

Hemerocallis (Day-Lily) 



Dicentra (BIceding-Heart) 



Shade-loving plants with flowers of un- 

 questioned charm. Spcctabilis is the Blced- 

 ing-Hcart of old-time gardens and should be 

 in every garden with a shady spot. Eximia is 

 a low-growing native fitting in here and there
