Delphinium 
Wrexham Strain 
DELPHINIUM 
(Hardy Larkspur) 
One of our most showy and useful hardy perennial 
plants, possessing almost every requisite for the adorn' 
ment of the garden. The beautiful flowers, borne on 
tall stately spikes, are a gorgeous sight and a charm 
to the garden. Excellent as a cut flower. 
To prolong the season of bloom, cut the old flower 
stems off after they have faded, and new shoots will 
flower later in the season. 
Start seed in flats in March and later transplant 
seedlings when Vi inches high to 4 inches apart. In 
May set the plants out in the border where they will 
bloom in Midsummer. Place mature plants 3 feet apart.

DIANTHUS 
(Pinks) 
Pinks are the most lovable of all the flowers in the 
garden, blooming from early Summer until Fall. They 
are unrivaled for brilliancy and richness of color. Most 
of them are hardy perennials which bloom the first

seedlings bear larger and better flowers the first season. 
Seed should be sown each Spring. Average height, 
1 foot.
