Delphiniums 
No perennials are more showy than Delphin- 
iums. Their great 20 to 30-inch spikes of flowers 
are produced from June until late fall and cannot 
be equaled for their gorgeous blue colorings and 
stateliness of habit. The height of the plants 
(4 to 5 feet) makes them ideal for the back- 
ground of borders. 
All plants for spring delivery are well estab- 
lished in 3-inch pots and will transplant without 
difficulty.
