Delphiniums 
R ARE indeed are the plants that are as 
stately as Delphiniums, and still rarer 
k. are the plants that are so popular in 
modern gardens. The rich tones of blue seem 
to reflect the colors of the sky, and are only 
enhanced in loveliness by the mauves and pure 
whites. The flower-spikes are from 4 to 6 feet 
tall, and covered for almost half their length 
with blooms. Plants should be set in well- 
prepared soil in Fall or early Spring; use bone- 
meal as a plant-food; do not allow seed to form.
