NOTE: Delphiniums are very hardy. They 
begin growth real early in spring. Is best 
to set these plants out when you do your 
early gardening. But will thrive if shipped 
and planted later. If sent after growth well 
started, we cut the tops back before packing. 
New shoots start at once from crown of 
plant. But order and plant early if you can. 
Means better results the first season. 
PESTER THE PESTS. Only insect I know 
of that works on Delphininum is some sort of 
red spider, louse or other “varmint” very ef¬ 
ficient in “mass production.” Shoot him in 
the eye first time you see him—shoot his wife 
and children, too—with some tobacco solu¬ 
tion. For mildew on plants, dust with fine 
powdered sulphur. 
Delightful Delphiniums (Perennial) 
A.S you know. Delphiniums run largely to 
blue tints and shades. Not so long ago we 
had only the solid light blue and dark blue. 
Now we get an amazing and delightful vari¬ 
ety of blues, many in combination with lilac, 
lavender, heliotrope, and near-pink. And the 
types or forms are as varied as the colors, 
many blossoms with a double set of petals 
instead of just one, the two sets often different 
in color. 
It’s fascinating to grow in masses of the 
various colors, all harmonizing, the way they 
come from mixed seed or plants I supply— 
all in one grand and glorious mixture, includ¬ 
ing largely the more graceful open type plants, 
but some also of the massive Wrexham or 
“Hollyhock” strain. 
Each season many splendid Delphinium 
bloom the first year, from seed sown right 
out in the garden in April. 
Delphinium may be sown right outdoors 
early in spring. With no protection, the plants 
will live over winter and increase in size and 
vigor.
