DELPHINIUM (Hardy Larkspur) 
(P. Culture 13 ) (3 to 5 feet) 
These stately plants with their beautifully 
cut foliage and spikes of magnificent blooms 
add an unsurpassed touch of artistic beauty to 
any garden. They bloom in the early Summer 
and will bloom again later if not allowed to de¬ 
velop seed, and are cut back after they have 
bloomed. They thrive best in medium light soils; 
heavy soils should be lightened by adding well 
rotted manure and sand. A liberal use of well 
rotted manure will intensify the colors and in¬ 
crease the size of the blooms.
