contrasting bee’s of black, white, brown, black and 
gold and striped, the flowers are of large size, up to 
three inches and more and the plants have been bred 
for graceful shape with strong whippy stems and for 
resistance to mildew, many are mildew free. 
These plants grow from five feet to seven feet or 
more tall, according to culture, and I truly believe this 
strain to be one of the very best in cultivation today 
as the British are sticklers for details when it comes 
to plant breeding, especially Delphinium. 
Imported Seed $1.00 Packet of about 300 seeds. 
or $3.50 per ¥f oz. 
Plants $3.00 per doz. seedlings mixed shades. 
WATKIN SAMUEL’S WREXHAM STRAIN. Im- 
ported from probably the largest grower in Britain. 
This is also of the Elatum Species and is generally 
referred to as the Hollyhock flowered which is some- 
what degrading for this beauty of the Delphinium 
family. These plants attain a height of five to seven 
feet or more and are very graceful in form, but the 
flower spike is heavier and tapers from a broad base to 
a point, and is referred to as pyramidal. The florets 
generally start lower and stand out from the stalk at 
the base to give the spike a width of sometimes close 
to a foot at base. This seed is taken from named 
varieties of the finest to be had anywhere, and comes 
in all the range of shades of blue with contrasting 
bee’s of white, purple and black and the flowers come 
both single and double. This seed comes from the best 
source I know of and I believe a thrill awaits any one 
who has never seen this husky beauty. 
Seed $ .50 per packet about 300 seeds. 
$2.00 per 1 oz. 
$2.50 per doz. seedlings. 
NOTE 
Where the term seedling is mentioned, I am refer- 
ring to transplanted plants that are from two months 
to about four months old, which will bloom the first 
season.
