Our hybrid DELPHINIUM are grown from seed given us by a 
famous private grower. Plants have flowers in a fine range of blues 
and have proved unusually strong and disease-resistant. Give 
Delphinium room and air, plant in a deep hole enriched with manure. 
Water well during the growing season and give fertilizer every ten days 
to two iveelis. Use two trowels full to large plant, apply dry. 
Formula for Delphinium fertilizer: 
1 part wood ashes 1 part lime 
1 part Scotch Soot 2 parts hone flour 
(.finer than honemeal) 
The DELPHINIUM SINENSIS tvill bloom for a long period if faded 
flowers are removed.
