ANNUAL SEEDS FOR FALL PLANTING 
Few know many of our prettiest and best known annuals may 
be sown in the fall; in fact some varieties, like the annual Lark¬ 
spur, are much better treated in this way. The principle is the 
one Nature uses. Seeds dropped from parent plant will lie 
dormant in the soil until in the early spring, when it germinates 
and begins a root system long before one can get in the ground 
to sow seed. Consequently the flowering season is prolonged by 
the earlier blooming. Ground should be prepared and seed sown 
just previous to the late heavy frosts. 
The fall-sown plants, as a rule, are much sturdier and better 
established on the blooming date than those started indoors.

ALLUP, WASH I NGTON 
A SINGLE SPECIMEN PLANT OF ANNUAL LARKSPUR 
Upright or Delphinium type. 
Royersford, Pa., 
May 17, 1939. 
The delphinium plants you mailed to Easton were re¬ 
ceived in good time. The weather was favorable and they 
carried beautifully. My brother was delighted as the plants 
he set out in the Fall from one of our Eastern houses had 
all winter killed but two. Your plants are the best I have 
ever seen. MARY S. A. 
Millford, Michigan. 
Pudor’s, Inc., 
Puyallup, Washington, 
Gentlemen: 
Please find enclosed money order for another 1/16 oz. of 
your “Pedigreed” Prize Winner Delphinium seed. I must 
say your seeds have so far produced seedlings far superior, 
both in vigor and beauty, far beyond a written description. 
Not that these are the only Delphinium we have tried; in 
fact I fully believe that we tried nearly every important 
Delphinium Specialist both in the United States and 
abroad in building up our strain and we certainly have 
developed some “jewels” from your strain. We were forced 
to turn down many seedling orders due to the fact that 
the demand far exceeded the supply. Customers could 
hardly believe such Delphiniums ever grew. You may look 
for an order from us this summer for some of your White 
Wonder Delphinium seed. 
Yours truly, 
EVERGREEN NURSERY.
