LARKSPUR (Delphinum). Nat. Ord.. Ranunculacece. 



One of the generally cultivated and ornamental genus of plants, combin- 

 ing unusual richness with an endless variety of colors, all of which are ex- 

 tremely beautiful and pleasing. The flowers are produced in the greatest 

 profusion ; and the plants, in beds, masses, or ribbons, are strikingly effec- 

 tive. For the guidance of amateurs, we may simply notice that the stock- 

 flowered Larkspur is of the same habit as the old Dwarf Rocket, but has 

 longer spikes-, and much larger and more double flowers ; the tall stock- 

 flowered variety is the same style as the branching, but with more compact 

 spikes, and larger and more double flowers. The tall-growing varieties, 

 scattered in shrubbery-borders, produce a charming effect. Hardy annuals.
