170 Aurantiaca Hybrida. Beautiful new hy¬ 
brids, varying in color from the pur¬

DELPHINIUM. (Larkspur.) 
In variety and beauty of its blue tints, which 
are as numerous as they are charming, no other 
plant can equal the Delphinium. The brilliant 
flowers are strongly effective in beds or masses, 
in borders, shrubberies, or in combination with 
white lilies. Some of the species flower both 
early and late; the season for all can be pro¬ 
longed by cutting away withered flower-stems. 
All varieties are easily cultivated and adaptable 
to many conditions, but in a soil deeply dug and 
well enriched with fine old manure, their blooms 
are the finest. Setting them iy 2 to 2 feet each 
way is not too much for the taller sorts.
