DELPHINIUMS 
Again Win Honors 
The medal illustrated is only one of the many trophies that have 
been given to our Delphiniums at shows in different parts of the 
country, and among the most pleasing features of our business are 
the letters we receive from our clients expressing their delight at 
the size, color, and finish of our flowers as grown by them. 
Delphiniums are not difficult to grow. Plant them in deep, rich 
soil, liberally fertilized with cow manure. Whoever got the idea 
that Black Rot was casued by animal manure was greatly mistaken. 
Feed your plants very liberally, water them profusely when 
growth is being made. Use lime freely at all times. Plant Totty’s 
Delphiniums and enjoy more pleasure from your garden than you 
ever had in your life. 
We have made a specialty of Delphiniums the past twenty years, and we 
have some of the named varieties, that we can still supply, as follows: 
Clarice —Large, double soft pink flowers forming a compact spike. One of 
the best in light shades. Price: S3.00 each, $30.00 per dozen. 
Countess Cowley —The spike is magnificent, the eye is black and the flowers 
are of splendid shape and substance. The outer petals are sky blue and 
the inner petals are varying shades of mauve. It is very double and in all 
respects a gorgeous type of Delphinium. Price: $3.00 each, $30.00 per 
dozen.
