Bleeding Heart (Dicentra Spectabilis) 
The Delphinium or Perennial Larkspur is one of the indispensable flowers to our flower 
gardens. No garden is quite finished without it, as it works into so many places. It starts 
blooming in June and continues throughout the season until frost, if, as soon as the first bloom 
falls, the old spike is cut off and the root well watered. New shoots will soon appear and the 
second crop of blooms will soon follow. The Delphinium should be planted in full sun in 
mellow soil, enriched with welbrotted manure. Water as soon as planted. 
England has long had the name of producing the very best in Delphinium. The English 
have a great fondness for this flower and this seed which we import each year produces won' 
derful flowers. 
We will offer this fall two of the very best strains of Delphinium that can be purchased 
anywhere. Fine field-run plants just as they come in the row, the best not picked out, at 
25c each; $2.50 per doz., postpaid. From either of the following strains:
