Delphiniums—P 
Few plants are so handsome in the garden as the perennial Lark¬ 
spurs. There are many species in cultivation, but the most important 
are the tall hybrids, of which there are many varieties with a wonder¬ 
ful range of color. They are valuable for their great variety in height, 
varying from 1 to 6 ft.; for their great variety in shades of color, 
varying from the palest- lavender through every conceivable shade of 
blue to deep indigo. They thrive in almost any situation. A good, 
deep, rich soil will repay with larger and better flowers. Remove the 
flower before the seed pods form and they will flower later in season.
