DELPHINIUM 
Belladonna hybrids 
This magnificent strain of Delphinium is of 
recent origin, and is unsurpassed by any other 
strain ever offered. The plants are of rather 
dwarf habit, rarely growing more than 2j4 
feet high. They form numerous stems from 
Delphinium Belladonna Hybrids 
the crown, but require no staking. Unlike 
the original Delphinium belladonna, this new 
type produces flowers in all shades from sky- 
blue to the very darkest possible shade of blue, 
including sapphire, turquoise and indigo, 
many of these intervening shades being be¬ 
yond description. The flowers are larger than 
the old variety, and are arranged rather loosely 
on the spike, so that they stand out boldly 
from the main stem, presenting a most graceful 
appearance. Perhaps the most valuable and 
admirable feature of these plants is their ex¬ 
treme free flowering qualities. If well cared 
for, and the old stems are kept cut off, they 
will flower almost the year round, and even 
through the winter months. Pkt. 25c. 
Delphinium, Blue Butterfly 
A distinct variety growing about 18 inches 
high and flowering the first season from seed. 
The plants have fine, feathery foliage and pro¬ 
duce freely, spikes of large single flowers, the 
color being a rich Salvia-blue. Pkt. 15c. 
Dimorphotheca aurantiaca 
African Orange Daisy 
This is considered by many one of the very 
best winter flowering annuals yet introduced. 
By sowing the seed in September or Octo¬ 
ber, it can be had in bloom as early as January 
and will flower continually until late spring or 
early summer. It forms neat, much-branched 
plants, which grow to a height of twelve to 
fifteen inches, and produce immense quantities 
of flowers. The marguerite-like blossoms, 
about two and a half inches in diameter, are of 
a unique, glossy orange-gold, this brilliant col¬ 
oring being rendered more conspicuous by the 
dark colored disk, which is surrounded by a 
black- zone. When in full bloom on bright 
sunny days it is truly a magnificent sight, for 
brilliancy of color almost rivaling the Califor¬ 
nia Poppy. It is especially adapted for plant¬ 
ing in masses in beds or borders and parkings. 
Pkt. 10c, oz. $1.00. 
Dimorphotheca aurantiaca 
Dimorphotheca aurantiaca hybrida 
Splendid new hybrids of this pretty annual 
from South Africa. In habit and flower these 
new hybrids are like the parent plant, but 
range in color from white, lemon yellow, gold¬ 
en yellow, orange to salmon. Pkt. 15c.
