Dreer's Giant 

 Pacific Hybrids 



This is a sensational new strain of hybrid Delphinium proclaimed 

 the showiest and most glorious of aU Delphiniums. Under favorable 

 conditions the plants will reach truly gigantic heights yet every flower 

 spike is well formed. Has wiry slender stems and a large percentage 

 of the plants have proved decidedly resistant to mildew. Rarely a 

 single, nicely formed bees, fine foliage, and unusual uniformity of 

 habit combine to make this the most desirable of all hardy Larkspur.
