fv Delphiniums 
Duckham's Super-Hybrids 
Where personal selection is made by a cus¬ 
tomer in our fields during the summer, we 
charge according to the merit of each plant 
selected. 
For those who cannot visit our grounds, but 
who desire some of these extra-choice types, 
we went over the fields last year and marked 
a number of the best, and now offer these as 
Super-Hybrids. The colors cover the com¬ 
plete range from deepest indigo-blue and violet 
to the faintest lavender, mauve and peach- 
cheek hues, almost bordering on true pink. 
We find deep blue with white and a brown 
“bee”; violet-purple, purple, and light blue 
with a black “bee”; lavender, pink, light blue, 
with a yellow “bee,” and a host of other four- 
tone effects, all in the one flower. 
Such combinations are unusual and it is 
these that have made our Delphiniums world 
famous. It is such combinations that have 
caused them to be termed “Wonders of the 
Wily Ways of Wizards” in plant-hybridization. 
The prices are $1.50, $3, and $5 each, and up. 
The Regular Grade 
Duckham’s Delphiniums are the result of 
years of careful breeding and selection from 
the world’s finest named varieties; our endless 
striving for stronger, healthier plants with 
larger flowers of new combinations of color. 
Our plants are all extremely hardy, and well- 
established clumps in the border provide, year 
after year, wonderful spikes of majestic size 
and great beauty. 
Price for Duckham’s Delphiniums, Regular 
Grade, covering the entire color-range from 
mauve and lavender to deep blue and violet: 
Mixed colors, or selected light or dark shades, 
$1 each; $4.75 for 6; $8 for 10; $75 per 100. 
Delphinium Seed

from seed, we offer a limited quantity selected

planting ourselves this year). Pkt. $2. Cul¬ 
tural directions enclosed with each order.
