HOODACRES DELPHINIUMS 
—have been developing over a period of more than 25 years. 
Remarkable for great range of rarest coloring, variety of floret 
forms and towering spikes of luxuriant bloom, these features 
rest on the great constitutional vigor of the strain. We are con¬ 
stantly complimented on the root system carried by our plants. 
And they are grown without irrigation. Also, they bloom twice 
in the season. 
Earlier in our extensive growing of Delphiniums we employed 
stakes made of spruce f-inch size and feet in length. Later 
we had them made six feet long and now our seven-foot ones 
are none too tall for some of the plants. We use them as insur¬ 
ance against unlooked-for storms. 
You can now buy genuine Hoodacres Delphinium plants, 
grown in our own fields and delivered, transportation free, in as 
perfect condition as from 50 miles distant, and at no greater cost 
than seedlings of indifferent parentage. 
From Emily Post, Edgartown, Mass.: "The plants were too wonderful— 
I have never seen such splendid clumps. I am sure they will 'behave' 
beautifully and be a credit to us both."
