Daelphinium : Larkspur 
tant Pacific Hybrids 
Here are offered the newest, the best and the finest to be secured 
anywhere. The range of colors varies from the palest shade of blue to 
the deepest indigo-blue and royal purple with many intermediary 
pastel tones of mauve, pink and lavender blendings. Among these new 
hybrids are flowers of huge size and fully double. They are particu- 
larly fine for cutting. These gorgeous Pacific Hybrids are, unfortun- 
ately, not long lived, so for permanent groups in the garden we recom- 
mend our own Wayside Gardens Hybrids. They are particularly fine 
for cutting. 
GIANT PACIFIC HYBRIDS IN POTS 
Recommended Rather Than Field-Grown Plants 
Experts prefer to set out Hybrid Delphiniums from pots. These young 
plants were started by us last summer and have developed into nice vigor- 
ous plants that will flower this summer for you with magnificent spikes 
of blooms. Space them 18 inches apart and plant in groups of three or 
more for stunning effects.

English Delphiniums 
Wayside Garden Hybrids 
Each 80c, Three $2.00, Doz. $5.75, 100 $30.00 
This is one of the most permanent and at present the most 
popular strains of the garden Delphinium. It is distinct 
because of its broad, conical spike and enormous individual 
flowers, 1% to 2 inches in diameter, in all shades of blue 
blended with mauve and violet. Also contains some fine 
clear white types. For permanent groups in the garden this 
mixture has no equal. 
DELPHINIUM BELLADONNA 
The Belladonna Delphinium does not grow quite as tall as the popular 
English Hybrids, but they produce more spikes and are more graceful, 
therefore, more useful for cutting. In fact, they are our loveliest early 
blue flowers for that purpose. They require the same care and treat- 
ment as suggested for the English Hybrids, but may be planted a little 
closer together, 12 inches apart is sufficient space for them. Their 
lovely blue spikes are about 3 or 4 feet high and produced in June and 
again in September. 
Belladonna Each 75c, Three $1.80, Doz. $5.65, 109 $28.00 
Light sky-blue. A great favorite for cutting.

ing much taller, many more flowers to each spike and of a brighter 
color. A fine form for garden as well as for cutting. 
Diguthius links 
A great selection of plants for the sunny border or sunny, exposed places 
in the rock garden or rock wall. In fact, no rock garden is complete with- 
out a liberal planting of the various Dianthus. In England where rock 
gardening is a well understood art, Dianthus are used by the thousands. 
They are perfectly hardy anywhere. 
Culture. Plant in ordinary good soil, which must contain some lime and 
should be well drained. Planting may be done in fall or early spring, 6 to 
10 inches apart, in sunny, dry places in the rock garden, rock wall or on 
the margin of the border. All love lime and gritty soils.

rose. Habit is perfect; the plant grows In a low, tight mound about
