SELF-POLLENIZED SEED 
The self-pollenized seed offered on this page is each year collected from a new 
generation of seedlings selected and crossed the previous year. Naturally every 
year the standard is higher as development progresses and only those specimens 
possessing all the desirable qualities are used for seed. 
COLORS: Lavender shades, Violet shades, Blue shades, Pastel shades. 
PRICES: Per packet $1.00, per half packet 50c. 
DELPHINIUM PLANTS 
From March to the end of June, and from September to the end of November we 
are offering strong young plants in twelve assorted shades as marked for cross 
pollenized seed. Transplanted, they will grow rapidly on and bring far better results 
in a shorter time than the old clumps. 
We prefer distribution of young seedlings rather than the one or two year old 
clumps, which very seldom bring good results as they are quite exhausted and it 
takes a year at best to get them re-established during which time the flowers are not 
at their best. Young seedlings will produce show specimens within four or five 
months after planting and continue blooming for several years. 
In California interior valleys where the climate is too warm, Autumn planting, 
September and October, is preferable. Plants having time to establish good root 
systems during winter will bring beautiful spikes in early Spring. Cooler regions 
will give good results from both Autumn and Spring planting except in heavy cold 
soils where Spring planting is preferable. 
PRICES: $2.00 per dozen, $15.00 per hundred.
