T all English 
DELPHINIUMS 
W E are tempted to say that the improved English 
Delphiniums are the most beautiful hardy plants 
in cultivation. Blooming all summer, coming up 
year after year, sending aloft successive shafts of incredb 
ble color to a height of 5, 6, or 8 feet, it is doubtful if 
any other plant so superb as Delphinium ever graced a 
garden. 
Few people are aware of the perfection to which the 
ancient flower has been brought by modern plant breed' 
ing, how easily it can be planted and grown, and how 
lasting a delight the gardener secures who plants Deb 
phinium. If everyone knew, tall hardy Delphiniums 
would be more in evidence everywhere. 
We offer especially selected plants grown from seeds 
of famous named varieties. Will grow anywhere but do 
best in rich garden soil. Every imaginable tint and shade 
of blue, lavender and purple. We promise you’ll find 
positive joy in their extraordinary bloom. 
The New White Delphinium 
For fifty years or more plant breeders have been work¬ 
ing to produce a satisfactory white Delphinium. There 
have, of course, been white Delphiniums but the color 
was always a dirty gray'white which we refused to grow 
or handle. Now at last the long sought'for white Deb 
phinium is here. The color is pure white without a trace 
of the nasty gray shade. Like other Hybrid Delphiniums 
the plants are tall, growing up to 6 feet or more and their 
habit is that of the older Delphiniums. The new white 
strain requires no special treatment and should be ham 
died exactly as you are accustomed to handling the older 
Hybrids. 50c each; 3 for $1.25; $4.50 per doz.
