Delphiniums 
OUR MAGNIFICENT “PRIZE WINNER STRAIN” is favorably known from Coast to 
Coast. Thousands of people in nearly every State of the Union have grown them for years. 
Every season brings us reports from our customers that they have won PRIZ4S at the 
largest Flower Shows. Every season brings new surprises, better and larger flow -szs. For 
instance, it was only a few weeks ago, the first of June, that we discovered some small 
seedlings from our variety ““_DREAM”’’, which were set out in March and now blooming the 
first time, that bore larger flowers than the mother plant—almost 4 inches. There will be 
many happy gardeners this summer, for we have sold thousands of these DREAM seedlings 
last fall and this spring. 
And bear in mind that our strain is mildew proof if given a chance; the stalks are strong 
and erect, not like willow whips and attain a height when well grown with loving care of 
8 to 10 feet. 
Seedlings will bloom in 150 days from seed sowing; you sow your seed in the spring as 
late as May Ist and your seedlings will bloom in September and October, Next year they 
will be big clumps. It’s the health and vigor of our strain. 
Seed sown in July and August will produce such husky plants before freezing weather 
comes, that they will winter well even in the coldest section if properly protected (cold frame 
or evergreen boughs) and by next spring you will be able to set out plants in your border 
that will surprise you next summer. 
We are harvesting a good seed crop this summer and we want more and more people 
to grow and enjoy our MAGNIFICENT PRIZE WINNER DELPHINIUMS and so we will 
sell the seed at a lower price than last year, even so the quality will be better and have de- 
cided to put up smaller packages for people who have only small gardens. 
Whole packs contain fully 200 seeds; we have had reports that 175 seedlings have been 
raised, which is excellent; 125 is about the average. Unfortunately there are always some 
people who grow only 10 or 15 plants; some even none. Good sports—and you have to bea 
good sport when you attempt to grow plants from seeds—they smile, acknowledge some 
fault committed, negligence somewhere, and they try it over again and succeed. Such cus- 
tomers we always meet half way. 
We know what. our seeds will do; we sow it 2 and 3 times a year; if it does not germinate 
well, we know it before you do and we immediately find the cause and rectify it and destroy 
such seed. We sell you only FRESH, GOOD, PURE SEED that has come from healthy, 
vigorous plants. IF YOU DON’T SUCCEED WITH IT, IT’S NOT THE FAULT OF THE 
SEED. 
HALF PACKS contain approximately 100 seeds; you should raise 50 plants at the least. 
QUARTER PACKS, offered this year for the first time, will contain approximately 50 
seeds. Not counted. You should raise at least 25 plants to maturity; even 15 plants will give 
you a magnificent display for a very small outlay of money.
