GERMAIN'S GIANT LARKSPURS 
Fr. Pied d’Alouette Ger. Rittersporn 
Sp. Espuela del Caballero 
Old time favorites as they are, there are few 
annuals in our gardens today to equal the 
Larkspurs’ usefulness and charm. The 
double stock-flowered strain here offered is 
a note-worthy improvement on the older 
forms. The plants are heavily branched, 
grow to a height of 3 feet or more and pro¬ 
duce a continuous succession of bloom from 
early summer until fall. Invaluable for 
summer bedding and border planting, they 
are also one of the most dependable sources 
of cut flowers over a period of months. Sow 
in the open in early spring or fall.
