HOICEST seedlings from Mr. Watkin Samuel’s famous “Wrexham” or often called “Hollyhock” delphiniums. 
We have handled this famous strain of hybrid delphiniums for many years and in our opinion it is the finest 
available. This has been substantiated by the many high awards we have received. 
At the British Delphinium Society’s Show in London. June 27. 1935. six certificates or “Awards of Merit” for new 
varieties were granted. 01 these Mr. Watkin Samuel was awarded three. At the 1936 and 1937 British Delphinium 
Society s Show in London, Mr. Samuel again won highest awards.

WATKIN SAMUEL'S "WREXHAM" HYBRID DEL¬ 
PHINIUM SEED. Selected by Mr. Samuel personally 
from his prize-winning plants. Hand pollenized. $5 per 
packet (about 250 seeds). 
BELLADONNA 
DELPHINIUM BELLADONNA (Improved): The flowers 
of this hardy larkspur are poised like a sky-blue butterfly 
on slender, stiff stems, away from the main stalk. They 
are of an exquisite, heavenly, turquoise-blue. 
The habit of growth of this plant is very graceful. 
Planted with Madonna or Nankeen lilies, or in front of the 
much taller and formal delphinium hybrids, they create 
a lovely effect. 
They are one of our best cut flowers, and perfectly 
hardy. Established plants produce a number of spikes, 
giving three crops during the season. 
Extra-heavy clumps of the true, unmixed, improved 
variety, $3.50 for 10; $30 per 100. 
NEW HYBRIDS 
N O other group of hardy perennials has received the attention in recent years by hybridists, both here and abroad, 
as has the so-called “Daylily,” or “Lemon Lily.” 
Its development by these hybridists has been little less than phenomenal and the varieties listed here are so 
great an improvement over the familiar Daylilies ’ that one can scarcely recognize them as such. 
Hybrid hemerocallis are very valuable for planting in borders, in the cut-flower garden and for utilizing in moist 
and shady positions. They are especially valuable where tones of yellow and orange are desired during the summer and 
early autumn. 
We have included in this list the finest introductions from American and English hybridists. They are of rare 
beauty, rich coloring and charming grace of form. They are unsurpassed as to hardiness and freedom from disease and 
insect pests. They will succeed in the coldest parts of Maine as well as in sub-tropical Florida. 
CULTURE: Of easy and simple culture, they demand a reasonably moist soil, fairly rich, and prefer, but do not 
require, slight shade.
