Burpee's Larkspurs 
One of the most beautiful and desirable annuals for the garden and 
cutting. Easily raised, quick growers, and very free flowering; produce 
a wealth of large, double blooms on long, attractive spikes. Even the 
deep green, finely divided foliage is pretty. 
The culture of annual larkspur is quite easy. They do best in a sunny 
position, in rich, well-drained garden soil free from fresh manure. As 
they like cool weather in which to germinate and to grow best, seed 
should be sown as early in the spring as the ground can be worked — 
the earlier, the better, but do not sow in cold, wet ground. We suggest 
sowng seed where plants are to bloom, as they sometimes resent 
being transplanted. When seedlings are large enough to handle, thin 
to stand 1 to 1 ft. apart. 
Giant Imperial 
Grow Upright Like Delphiniums 
Attractive flower spikes. 3 to 4 ft. tall, which stand upright, close to 
the center stalk—a decided improvement on older types. Well-formed, 
large, double flowers in a wonderful range of colors. 
2142 Glitters Scintillating salmon-cerise; the brightest of all lark¬ 
spurs. Large, double flowers fill the spikes, the laterals coming into 
bloom at almost the same time as the main spike, which is quite 
unusual. Not so tall as others and more showy, whether in the gar¬ 
den or as cut flowers. Pkt. ISji; Vg oz. 35(i‘; % oz. 60^.
