SEEDS—OF HOODACRES DELPHINIUMS 
One of the most exacting operations at Hoodacres is the 
protection and collection of seeds from prepared specimen 
plants. Only such are used—we do not gather from the general 
planting. All seeds we send out are from the latest harvest 
season and therefore as fresh as possible. The new crop ready 
for distribution about August first. 
All Hoodacres seeds are from double flowers, unless other- 
wise stated, and their seedlings are notably free from the 
rogues, culls, which too often develop from over-praised stock. 
Our seeds bring pleasing surprises at every turn. 
THE WONDROUS: From an assembly of specimen Delphin- 
iums, extraordinary for size of florets, we have selected a group 
of the best for seed parents, the standard of size being at least 
two and one-half inches and running light to very dark. $2.00. 
REX OREGONUS: A class having broad tapering spikes, in 
the various color tones. A marked improvement over previous 
pyramidal forms. $2.00. 
COMPLETE RANGE of Shades and Forms. From finest indi- 
vidual plants. Not the ordinary ‘‘mixture” of left-overs. Into this 
class we are putting each year seeds of the newest things, some 
of which we have insufficient stock to offer separately. Nowhere 
in the world is there offered a mixed packet of Delphinium 
seeds so filled with new colors and highest quality. Liberal 
packet $1.00. 
BOUNTY BLEND: A generous packet carefully chosen from 
field specimens, representing all colors. Not the “mixty-maxty” 
sort commonly put up. (This supplants our ALLTYPES packet 
as an improvement.) Pkt. 50c.
