texture, which gives the color luminosity and vividness not seen 
before in Delphinium. Very long, well-formed spikes; a true show 
flower with black bees. 
Blue Jay Series ... Every Delphinium lover seeks the true blue 
color, which is so rare in nature and so difficult to obtain. These 
series are our bid toward attaining it. The color is striking, clear 
medium to dark blue; very intense and alive, with dark, contrast- 
ing bee. 
King Arthur Series . . . This is still one of the most brilliant Del-

formed, long spikes are carried on thin, woody stems.

with very large individual flowers averaging up to 3 inches in

summer sky, with white bees representing fleecy clouds; a color 
long sought in the hybrid Delphiniums.

STANDARD COLORS 
Besides the named series we are offering several groups which are 
not yet segregated to such a degree that they would come true to 
color. They are the best we have been able so far to produce in their 
respective colors and are fully equal in character of growth and size 
of flowers to the named series. Produced by artificial cross-pollina- 
tion to intensify the desirable characteristics in the highest degree. 
It is the same seed we use for our own planting, and by releasing 
it to the public we feel that we are giving them an equal chance. 
The percentage of show specimens from this seed is the highest 
obtainable. 
Lavender Shades ... Clear lavender mauves, with white bee. 
Lavender Pastels ... Lavenders with smoky tinge in the petals and 
dark brown or black bee. 
Light Violet Shades ... Great variation of light violet tones, rang- 
ing from lilac to deep violet. 
Dark Violet Shades . .. Comprising the deepest color tones in 
Delphinium, mostly dark bees. 
Light Blues ... Ranging from light to medium blue with white, 
fawn and dark bees. 
Medium Blues ... Clearest blues are in this group, with white and 
dark bees. 
Dark Blues... Ranging from medium to very dark blues, pre- 
dominantly white bees. 
Blue Violet Shades ... Richest coloring in Delphinium comprises 
this group. Combination of dark blue and violet is further intensi- 
fied with dark bees. 
Clear White ... These are slightly different from the Galahad 
Series, the flowers not being as large; however, they are the purest 
white, with velvety texture. Very heavy branching and long trusses 
of flowers make them ideal for cut flower purposes. 
W hite—Black Bee ... The best whites with dark bees we have 
been able so far to produce.

colors, $8.00; half packets, $4.00. Collection of ten colors, $16.00;
