Pacific Hybrids 
Delphiniums 
Their popularity is growing each year because of 
the stately magnificence of the flower spikes, 
and beautiful shades of coloring. Belladonna, 
Bellamosa and Hybrids, grow 3 to 6 feet tall, 
bloom in June and July, and if cut back and fer- 
tilized after bloom, will give more flowers in late 
summer or early fall. CULTURE F.

BRIDS. (Blackmore and Langdon’s Prize
