*CYPRIPEDIUM. Lady-Slipper; Moccasin 
Flower. A charming native Orchis which 
may easily be transplanted to the garden pro- 
vided care is exercised in planting. Ground 
should be well prepared by adding a good 
proportion of humus such as peat or muck. 
While roots require a wet soil, the plant will 
not tolerate having its crown immersed; there- 
fore should be planted on little hummocks in 
wet soil. The hummocks should be raised 
enough to prevent water from standing over 
crown and some shade should be provided.

DELPHINIUM. Larkspur. BCO. Without a 
doubt, the Delphinium is the queen of all 
the hardy garden flowers. We offer many of 
the newer strains and believe our Delphinium 
will compare favorably with the best on the 
market. They are perfectly hardy and easily 
grown. As they require good air circulation 
they should not be crowded together. To 
maintain a high alkaline soil, the ground 
should be sprinkled occasionally with agri- 
cultural lime and given a well-balanced com- 
mercial fertilizer in early spring and again 
after they have rested following the first 
blooming period.
