DELPHINIUM . . Hardy Perennial Larkspur 
The best-loved blue garden flower is surely the hardy perennial Delphinium. In our care¬ 
fully selected strain, each compact tapering spire of bloom is a dream of rare beauty. The 
colors are indescribably beautiful—rich and delicate, blends of breath-taking loveliness. They 
grow three to six feet tall, so are excellent background plants. By far the best time to start 
delphinium is in the fall months of August, September and up to November. Seed require 15 
to 20 days to germinate. Orders from this catalog receive seed harvested during the late part 
of July, 1935. Maximum size flowers are not produced until the second blooming season. 
Special leaflet on the culture of delphinium from seed will be supplied if requested at the 
time of ordering.
