DELPHINIUM (Del-fin'-i-um)—Larkspur 
Stately perennials growing to eight feet in 
height and often giving us three feet of solid 
bloom at one time. If cut back clear to the 
ground after blooming each time they will 
continue to bloom from early spring until 
cut by frost in late fall- Should be heavily 
fertilized for the best results- In addition to 
some of the finest imported named hybrids 
we are offering several of our introduc¬ 
tions which we consider of unusual merit. 
We supply large strong roots, guaranteed 
true to name. 
Annette—A semi-double sort with lavendar petals 
tipped with bright blue. Olive markings in 
the bee make this a most unusual color com¬ 
bination. $2.25 each 
Concord—A most brilliant Gentian blue single 
having a white bee’ striped with bright 
purple. An outstanding flower even in large 
collections. When under proper conditions 
this delphinium will scent the whole garden 
with a delightful grape fragrance. We can¬ 
not guarantee this, however as under some 
conditions it does not seem to be fragrant. 
$3.50 each 
Coquette—An English origination of deep blue 
and purple. Very double. Strong grower and 
free bloomer. $2.50 each 
Invincible—Double. Very large, deep purple with 
bronze bee. Tall grower with strong flower 
spike opening all at one time. $4.50 each

purple with extra large black bee surrounded 
bv a velvety crest of green gold. We like this- 
$2.50 each 
La Belle—Double, rich medium blue with margin 
of lavender. Lovely fawn colord eye. Very 
fine. $5.00 each 
Lady Dorothy—An extremely large pure lilac 
mauve. This is one of the rarest of all shades 
in delphiniums coming to us from an Eng¬ 
lish grower. $5.50 each 
Princess Pat—Double. Outer petals light blue, 
inner pinkish lavendar, white eye with golden 
crest. The petals have a frosted effect which 
scintillates in the sunshine with dazzling 
beauty. Very large branching type. 
$6.50 each 
Royal Spray—This delphinium originated with 
us six years ago- We have spent a great deal 
of time testing it to make sure that it is 
really the distinct variation from type that it 
seemed in the beginning. We now feel con¬ 
fident that it is one of the outstanding new 
flowers of recent years. Royal Spray is one 
of the fine truly double bi-colors, coming in 
deep^ cobalt blue and rich purple. It attains 
a height of from 5' to 6' with straight sturdy 
stalks. At this point, however, it puts all 
delphinium precedent aside and instead of 
forming the conventional stiff flower spike, 
this plant twists and curls outward and 
down, literally spraying its beautiful star- 
like blooms in a mad cascade. The individual 
florets do not have the usual crowded effect 
but are set on separate little stems giving 
the whole blossom head a daintv and lace¬ 
like effect. A single spike of Royal Spray 
is a whole bouquet and several in a large 
display of other sorts, lightens the stiff 
effect unbelieveably. The plant is a strong 
vigorous grower and seems immune to dis¬ 
ease with us. It has proven perfectly hardy 
in our rigorous climate. $7.50 each 
Solihul Glory —A recent importation from Eng¬ 
land. A huge spike of double mauve flowers
