feet of space and assure yourself of obtaining some beautiful things never 
before seen by the eyes of man; do you know of a more thrilling adventure? 
Seedlings. — I will have mixed seedlings for September delivery and as¬ 
sorted seedlings for early April delivery. Seedlings received in the fall should 
be mulched after the first hard freeze; seedlings received in the spring should 
be potted, sheltered in a cold frame until established. 
PRICES 
Seeds one dollar per packet; seedlings $1.50 per dozen. 
RED HEMEROCALLIS 
A fine assortment of seed and pollen parents will assure you some ex¬ 
ceptionally fine progenies. My own tests from these crosses have bloomed and 
produced a very high percentage of fine reds and deep rose pinks, as well as 
a limited number of yellows and oranges generously splashed with red. The 
colors vary from deep, blackish maroon to mahogany reds, blood reds, deep 
rose, and even smoky lavender shades. The height of plants varies from three 
to five feet and the size of flowers from five to seven inches. Planted with 
your yellow hemerocallis, these reddish shades should give you a pleasing con¬ 
trast. Plant in partial shade as they fade in direct sunlight. 
Seeds, in mixtures only, $1.00 per packet. (Ready in August and Septem¬ 
ber). 
Large plants that have bloomed for one or two years, $2.50 for three plants. 
When the clumps are large, you will receive a blooming size division, smaller 
ones are sent intact. (Ready in August and September). 
Smaller seedlings, ready for September or April delivery, $2.50 per dozen, 
postpaid. 
NOTE: The larger plants are limited in number; order early if you do not 
wish to be disappointed. 
VISITORS 
Visitors are welcome if they come in season. They are not welcome and 
will not be admitted out of season. A delphinium garden out of season is a 
disappointing thing and the visitors cannot help but be unfavorably impressed. 
Those who contemplate a visit to Morgantown must come here in May for pop¬ 
pies and in June for delphiniums. Get in touch with me before coming so that 
I can give you the best date to arrive. Those who are interested in seeing 
specimen plants of delphinium should visit me in Morgantown; those who are 
interested in mass effect should go to Terra Alta, W. Va. The season at Terra 
Alta begins the latter part of June and extends into July. 
AMERICAN DELPHINIUM SOCIETY 
Two dollars and love for delphinium entitle you to membership in this up 
and coming organization. You will receive the Yearbook, the finest of its kind 
published, and be abreast with the newest things in delphinium development.
