Pacific Strain 
Delphinium Hybrids 
Our new crop of seedlings this year proved 
of such a high standard of quality that we feel 
justified in introducing our strain under dis¬ 
tinct name as although originally derived from 
sources all over the world now has definite 
characters of its own. 
Huge flowers two and one-half to three and 
one-half inches in diameter, beautifully spaced 
on well balanced long spikes, thin woody stems, 
clear colors as well as pastel shades with com¬ 
parative mildew resistance is our standard of 
quality. 
A very conservative buyer for large Eastern 
firm who saw our fields in bloom, exclaimed 
that he never had seen anything better even in 
England. We have repeatedly shown in the 
Spring and Autumn shows in Oakland, the State 
Fair in Sacramento, and various small shows in 
the Bay Region, always winning First Prize in 
every class, with comparative ease. 
This year for the first time we are offering 
series of crosses for those who desire only the 
best. The choicest new seedlings are artificially 
cross pollenizedfor thatpurpose. So far we have 
used the seed only for our planting as the pro¬ 
duction of it is quite expensive, but now are 
offering limited quantity to give our customers 
an equal chance. The percentage of perfect 
show specimens from this seed is the highest 
obtainable. 
Owing to favorable climatic conditions, we 
can offer fresh seed at any time, as our flower¬ 
ing season begins in February and seeds are 
gathered from April to December.
