Annual Larkspur Makes a Brilliant Showing in the Garden and 
A Most Successful Cut Flower for the House 
HART & VICK’S 
ANNUAL LARKSPU 
This is one of the best known of garden 
flowers, and in recent years a vast improvement 
has been effected by careful selection in size 
and color of the blossoms and the general 
habit of the plant. Seeds sown outdoors before 
the close of April will produce flowering plants 
by the beginning of July, and give a continu- 
ous succession of flowers from then until frost, 
a record that is not surpassed by any other 
annual. They make handsome beds and their 
free, graceful habit and bright colors are very 
effective when planted in groups in the old- 
fashioned flower or shrubbery border. As a cut 
flower they are particularly useful. Please re- 
member Larkspur seed requires cool weather 
for germination. Sow as early in the spring as 
possible. Fall sowing should be done in Sep- 
tember.
