Delphinium, Giant Pacific Hybrids 
Delphinium / Giant Pacific Hybrids 
This is the most wonderful strain of Delphiniums 
that we have ever seen. The plants are very tall, 
yet the flower-spikes are unusually well formed and 
not at all over-heavy. While the blooms are as 
beautiful as any Delphinium flowers we have ever 
seen, the most important thing about this strain is 
that plants are healthier than any of the others.

Dianthus, Delight 
PERENNIAL 
A cross between two outstanding members of the 
Dianthus family, namely Sweet Wivelsfield and 
Roysi. This attractive Garden Pink is in bloom 
from June until October, producing flowers about 
Yi inch in diameter. Not in trusses like Sweet 
Wivelsfield, but in alternating spikes in great pro¬ 
fusion. Neat and compact, the growth is only 9 
inches high. The color ranges from pale pink to 
deepest purple, with many of the velvety rich reds 
found in Sweet Williams. Pkt. $1, 3 pkts. $2.50. 
Dianthus, Loveliness 
The flowers have large, lacerated petals of a most 
unique mauve tint, but most delightful of all is 
its gorgeous bouquet—the most alluringly perfumed 
flowers known in Dianthus. This glorious novelty 
will warm the hearts of hostesses looking for a 
different cut-flower for the table, its lacy, frilly flow¬ 
ers looking like nothing else in the plant world. 
Pkt. (20 seeds) $1. 
Dianthus, New Blue 
PERENNIAL 
Some years ago a most delightful Dianthus was 
found in Japan, growing in the mountain crevices, 
and some seeds were sent to England. Messrs. 
Allwood managed to raise most of these, and accli¬ 
matized the seedlings. The color is a bright lavender- 
blue, the foliage is deep green, and the flowers are in 
trusses about 9 inches high. Blooms in July, 
August, and September. Pkt. $1.50.
