Delphinium (Perennial Larkspur) 
Few plants are so handsome in the garden as the perennial larkspurs. The 
most important species in cultivation are the tall hybrids of which there are 
many varieties with a wonderful range of color, varying from the palest laven¬ 
der through every shade of blue to deep indigo. They thrive in almost any sit¬ 
uation and are easily increased, being perfectly hardy. All varieties, Pkt. 10c,
