15c each, 3 for 40c, $1.50 per doz. 
Chrysanthemums 
In October and the dull days of November when frosts creep 
into the air and the garden is nearly destitute of bright color, 
these keep up the succession of beauty; prefer full sun, but 
will stand shade part of the day. Hardy in well drained soil, 
with a light winter mulch of straw. Grows 2 to 4 ft. high.

ates partial shade. Divide and replant every two years. 15c

Delphinium; Larkspur 
Who has not admired this favorite of our grandmothers gar- 
den? The stately spikes of dainty spurred flowers provide the 
necesary touch of blue in May, with a second, perhaps a third 
crop if cut back after blooming. Plant in full sun, in well 
drained soil, preferably sandy loam. Often the addition of 
ground lime helps. In wet soils they may winter kill. Rich soil 
will grow taller spikes than the heights stated below.
