DO YOU WANT TO PLAY? 
For 3 years we have been growing a very unusual Delphinium of a color difficult to 
describe; it isn’t a pink and it isn’t a mauve; it’s a most delicate light lilac self, which means 
no trace of any other color. The bee is light brown, the whole flower most dainty, a double 
row of petals, 244 inches in diameter, with a glistening sheen. The foliage is beautiful, the 
leaves rather thick, almost leathery. Strong constitution, a vigorous grower. MIGHT IT BE 
A FORERUNNER OF A PINK DELPHINIUM? 
We like to have you try it out with us and grow some seedlings from it; we had one 
last year that was of a better and deeper color. A pure lilac Delphinium would be very 
beautiful. 
To some interested experienced gardeners we will be glad to sell some seed. WHOLE 
PACKET (200 seeds) $2.00; 1% size $1.00. Absolutely nothing less sold. You need that many 
seeds to make it worth while. 
We will give the plant the name “DOROTHEA” meaning “Gift from the Gods’. So if 
you want some seeds of this variety just order from ““‘DOROTHEA”,
