"DATURA 
Seed may be sown outdoors after danger of frost is 
over, but for early blooming sow in hotbed and trans¬ 
plant about three feet apart each way. Roots can be 
kept all winter in cellars. Tender annual; three feet 
high. 
Wrightii—Pure white at the center shaded into lilac 
and blue; magnificent large single flowers. In warm 
latitudes can be continued as a perennial. Pkt. 10c. 
‘DELPHINIUM 
Delphinium—Hardy Larkspur. Very decorative border 
plants ranging in height from the 18-inch Cashmer- 
ianum to the stately Hybrids, 5 to 6 feet tall, whose 
side shoots flower after the main spike has finished, 
thus prolonging the blooming period. If the flower spikes 
are removed as soon as they fade, new ones will continue 
to appear, at intervals all summer. The colors run from 
pure white to darkest blue. Some varieties have a 
black center, others show a pleasing contrast, in shades 
of blue, between the inner and outer petals. Stake all 
varieties when 18 inches high to prevent them from 
blowing down. 
★Butzer’s Portland Hybrids—This mixture is a won¬ 
der. The plants are strong and vigorous. The flower 
spikes are tall and graceful, covered from bottom to top 
with the most beautiful hollyhock-like flowers. The 
colors are from the palest lavender to the richest blue, 
some with white centers, others with black, reminding 
one of bees at work. Pkt. 15c
