DELPHINIUM PLANTS 
From March to the end of June, and from September to the end of November we are offering 
strong young plants in twelve assorted shades as marked for cross pollenized seed. Transplanted, they 
will grow rapidly on and bring far better results in shorter time than the old clumps. 
We prefer distribution of young seedlings rather than the one or two year old clumps, which 
very seldom bring good results as they are quite exhausted and it takes a year at best to get them 
re-established during which time the flowers are not at their best. Young seedlings will produce show 
specimens within four or five months after planting and continue blooming for several years. 
In California interior valleys where the climate is too warm, Autumn planting, September and 
October, is preferable. Plants having time to establish good root systems during winter will bring 
beautiful spikes in early Spring. Cooler regions will give good results from both Autumn and Spring 
planting except in heavy cold soils where Spring planting is preferable. 
All seedlings offered are grown from the choicest cross pollenized seed.
