feet in height, and forming perfect globes of green, feathery- 
branches, which turn red after frost. Anyone can grow this 
plant in almost any situation, and we accordingly recommend 
it most highly. An annual hedge plant. 3 feet. Native both 
in Europe and United States.

Indies...34 oz. 25 pkt. 10 
LARKSPUR □ 
Culture 1, 4 or 5. Normal germination, 20-25 days 
Larkspur or Annual Delphinium is of unsurpassed merit for 
massing in the border, as well as for cutting. Native to many 
parts of North Temperate Zone. Tall, upright, base-branching 
in habit, the Giant Imperials have passed all other types of 
Larkspur for florists’ and general garden use. The Delphinium¬ 
like spikes of double flowers, carried on stems 4-5 feet long, are 
compactly placed on upright growing plants, requiring only 
about half the space needed for the old Stock Flowered type. 
May be started either indoors or outside, but indoor starting 
improves the quality of the flowers.
