Delightful DELPHINIUMS [Perennial] 
An amazing and delightful variety of blues, 
many in combination with lilac, lavender, 
heliotrope, and near-pink. And the types or 
forms are as varied as the colors, many blos¬ 
soms with a double set of petals instead of 
just one, the two sets often different in color. 
It’s fascinating to grow in masses the vari¬ 
ous colors, all harmonizing, the way they 
come in my grand and glorious “SPECIAL 
MIXTURE,” including largely the more grace¬ 
ful open type plants, but some also of the 
Wrexham strain. 
Delphiniums often bloom the first year, 
from seed sown in the garden in April. 
Sow outdoors early in spring. Plants live 
over winter, increase in size and vigor.

NOTE: Delphiniums are very hardy. They 
begin growth real early in spring. Is best 
to set these plants out when you do your 
early gardening. But will thrive if shipped 
and planted later. If sent after growth well 
started, we cut the tops back before packing. 
New shoots start at once from crown of 
plant. But order and plant early If you can. 
Means better results the first season. 
PESTER THE PESTS. Only insect I know 
of that works on Delphininum is some sort of 
red spider, louse or other “varmint” very ef¬ 
ficient in “mass production.” Shoot him in 
the eye first time you see him—shoot his wife 
and children, too—with some tobacco solu¬ 
tion. For mildew on plants, dust with fine 
powdered sulphur.
