‘Burpee’s Annual Larkspur 
One of the most beautiful and desirable Annuals for the garden and cutting. Easily raised, 
quick growers, and very free flowering; produce a wealth of large double blooms on long! 
attractive spikes. Even the deep green, very finely divided foliage is beautiful. 
Their culture is simple. They do best in a sunny position, in rich, well-drained garden 
soil, free from fresh manure. As they like cool weather in which to germinate and grow 
best, seed should be sown as soon as the frost is out of the ground. Do not sow in cold, 
wet ground, however. We suggest sowing seed where plants are to bloom as they 
sometimes resent being transplanted. When seedlings are large enough to handle, thin 
tall varieties to stand 2 ft. apart, the dwarfer varieties. 1 ft. apart.
