white; the only guarantee we make is that both the seed and the pollen 
parents are pure white, semi double, and quite vigorous. We have 
made our selections very rigidly and there is no reason why some good 
things should not result. But one should never forecast the behavior 
of hybrid seeds. 
Series 5: Pure Blue Double Crosses 
These also are still in' a stage of evolution. Some very fine things 
are now available, but the flowers are still small. If one is satisfied to 
have fine, graceful spikes of pure blue flowers, without a trace of pur¬ 
ple, varying in intensity from soft sky-blue to deep ultramarine and 
gentian blue, glowing ripples of saphire and a bit of distilled heaven, 
one should not hesitate to try seeds of our pure blue, double crosses. 
But be prepared for disappointments as well as for delicious surprises. 
Not ready before September. 
Series 6 : General mixture 
Consists of a mixture of the foregoing five crosses. 
Series 7: Connoisseurs’ Series 
Here are included crosses made between the finest novelties that 
will bloom for us for the first time this summer. In realty these might 
be termed pre-release seeds because next year their parents will be used 
to a large extent for the production of 1935 seeds. Offered only in one 
mixture. Seeds not available before September. 
PRICES 
We have only one price, $2.50 per packet of at least one hundred 
seeds. 
LYONDEL DELPHINIUM PLANTS 
Hitherto we have not offered large plants of delphinium for sale 
because of lack of proper facilities. We are happy to announce that 
through an arrangement with Mr. Robert Schreiner, Route 1, River- 
view Station, Saint Paul, Minn., we can supply one and two year old 
plants. For prices and other details write directly to Mr. Schreiner 
whose integrity and well established reputation as a grower of irises and 
other perennials should assure a thorough satisfaction. 
BABY SEEDLINGS 
In the spring of each year we offer a limited quantity of seedlings 
from August-sown seeds. These will bloom the same year. No seedlings 
sold after the 20th of April because our season will be too far ad¬ 
vanced by then for a safe delivery of seedlings. While our responsibil¬ 
ity ceases after the delivery of the packages to the post office, we realize
