HEREFORD’S GARDENS 
DELPHINIUM—Larkspur 
This is probably the most popular flower grown. 
A stately plant which is unexcelled for the border. 
They are also very desirable for cutting. Delphin¬ 
ium like the sun and require good rich, deeply cul¬ 
tivated alkaline loam. 
Belladonna Improved “Cliveden Beauty”—The finest 
belladonna, growing 4 ft. high and having lovely 
light blue flowers. Blooms early and throughout 
the summer. Very graceful and especially good for 
cutting. Each 20c; 3 for 50c; 10 for $1.50. 
Bellamosum—Like the Belladonna except for having 
flowers of dark blue. Each 20c; 3 for 50c; 10 for 
$1.50. 
Chinensis “Cambridge Blue”—Attractive plant with 
finely cut foliage. The “Cambridge Blue” is a new 
shade added to the Chinensis group which is a 
rich vivid light blue. The flowers are large and 
spaced on 2 ft. spikes. A free bloomer and fine for 
cutting. Blooms throughout the summer. Plant in 
a well drained soil. Each 25c; 3 for 60c; 10 for $1.75. 
“Dreams of Beauty” Hybrid—This is the finest we have 
ever seen. Has wonderful irridescent blooms rang¬ 
ing from lightest sky blue to deepest gentian blue, 
some orchid shades, both single and double, some 
! with pink fillings. Will bloom all summer if not 
allowed to seed. Height 5-6 ft. Is unexcelled for 
beauty. Each 30c; 3 for 75c; 10 for $2.00. 
Giant Pacific Hybrids, Mixed Blue Shades—One of 
the finest introductions. These spikes stand very 
erect and attain a very good height. Flowers are 
beautifully spaced and of the largest size. Rarely 
a single. Treat as other Delphiniums when plant¬ 
ing. A good rich soil will provide better size and 
flowers. Each 35c; 3 for $1.00; 10 for $2.50. 
“Iceberg”—This is the true white Delphinium. Every 
lover of delphiniums should have a few plants of 
this strain. They are especially fine for cutting, 
and used to set off the blue of our well known blue 
varieties. They grow equally as well as the Bella¬ 
donna and should be treated the same. Each 35c; 
3 for 85c; 10 for $2.50. 
Lamartine—This is one of the newer introductions. 
The plant has very pretty dark green foliage, and 
stands very erect. The flowers are a very dark blue 
with dark eye. Very distinctive as one of the dark 
blues. Blooms very well in ordinary soil with 
proper alkaline content. Average height 3 ft. Each 
25c; 3 for 60c; 10 for $1.75.
