DELPHINIUM PACIFIC GIANTS (Vetterle and Reinelt) 
A new strain originated on the Pacific Coast. Huge flowers two and one- 
half to three and one-half inches in diameter, beautifully spaced on well 
balanced spikes, thin woody stems. Comparatively mildew resistant, this strain 
is practically 100% double. Through an arrangement with Vetterle and Reinelt 
we are able to offer, from 1940 harvest, seed produced by the originator on two 
fine new novelties and a special Mixed in addition to the many fine varieties 
and shades offered last season. 
BLACK KNIGHT SERIES 
dabae The darkest of them all. Individual flowers two and 
one-half to three inches in diameter; of beautiful 
round form, with heavy velvety texture, which 
gives the color luminosity and vividness not seen 
before in Delphinium. Very long, well-formed 
spikes; a true show flower. (Originator’s descrip¬
