arkspur 
In northern states an outdoor sowing in early September will give the 
best blooms in the Spring, however if sown as early in the Spring as the 
ground can be worked, fine spikes may be obtained. Sowings are usually 
made in January for a crop under glass. 
The base branching types are the best for cutting. For supreme quality 
try the new Regal, Supreme or Super Majestic Strains. 
REGAL 
Very long spikes of huge well spaced florets make this new strain 
of Florist’s Market larkspur distinctive. Some flowering trials proved 
this strain to be superior.
