Our Delphinium Pacific Giants are simply “Grand” 

DELPHINIUM 
One of our most showy and useful 
perennia) producing spikes of 
flowers in profusion in June-July. 
When they are cut back after the 
blooming period they often throw 
back a second crop of bloom in» 
September-October. They vary a 
great deal in height according to 
class and varieties. Like most of 
the commonly grown perennials the 
seed should be sown end of June or 
beginning of July and the young 
plants transplanted end of August 
or beginning of September. They 
wil] bloom well the following year. 
After a few years the plants will get 
quite large and should be sprayed 
early in the spring with Bordeaux 
mixture in order to prevent the 
spread of rust on the leaves.
