PAINTER’S DREAM. This one is most dis- 
tinctive and is now greatly improved, with 
large flowers, long spikes, fine laterals, 
and much stronger growth. It: has a tan 
center and is an almost indescribable blend- 
ing of soft deep blue tones, with faint 
touches of mauve. The 1938 crop ran about 
forty per cent true. 
PASTEL PINK. Cousin to Pink Delight but 
with much more orchid. Extra large flow- 
ers, rather short, strong spike, mostly heht 
centered, double, and distinctive. It comes 
very true from seed. The growth is usually 
around five feet and seldom needs staking. 
ROYAL PURPLE. This is one of my most 
beautiful delphiniums, runnine fifty to 
seventy per cent true in the 19388 crop. 
Spikes around four feet, wide at the bot- 
tom, and tapering to a spire. They come in 
both hght and dark centers, with almost 
perfect placement, lone pedicels, with 
large, flat, widely opened flowers. Very 
double. A startling color. A stalk may have 
as many as twenty laterals, with flowers 
almost as large as those on the main spike. 
Vigorous growth with four to seven spikes 
per plant. Flowers from 3-3!4 inches. 
Clear, bright royal purple, one of the rich- 
est and most gorgeous colors in delphin- 
lums.

RUBY. This is a most unusual color in flow- 
ers and so far as I know occurs in hybrid 
delphiniums only. It is the color of the 
Siberian Ruby or deeper shade of tourma- 
lin, the gem stone. A lighter shade of royal 
purple, with more pink in it. Flowers very 
large, about 31% inches. A clear sparkling 
color. Around 6 feet in height. Pkt. $3.00.
