DELPHINIUM 
(Perennial Larkspur) 
The tall, stately flower-spikes of the Delphinium 
rise to a height of 3 to 5 feet and supply the garden 
with a wealth of pale blue, azure-blue, gentian-blue, 
sapphire, and royal purple hues. They are effective in 
all situations and demand rich, deeply cultivated soil 
and considerable moisture. If flower-spikes are cut 
when through blooming, others will replace them. 
Sow the seeds in early spring, indoors or in hot¬ 
beds in shallow boxes. When the seedlings are about 
% inch high, transplant to flats 3 to 4 inches apart 
each way, transferring them to the open ground when 
the weather is suitable. Spring-sown plants bloom ni 
July and August. They may be planted 6 to 8 inches 
apart. The following spring the choicer ones may be 
planted in permanent groups 2 to 3 feet apart. In two 
to three years heavily manure the beds and reset.

ored florets—lovely tones of blues, mauves, lilacs,
