Egan, the well known amateur and writer on horticultural subjects, says of Delphiniums: "Sow the seeds in early spring indoors or in hot beds in shallow boxes. When the seedlings are about three-quarters of an inch high, transplant to flats three or four inches apart each way, and a week or ten days before planting out time remove the flats to open air, protecting them cold days or nights; this hardens them off and prevents any set-back when planted out. "Spring-'sown plants bloom in July and August. They take up very little room, for they may be planted 6 or 8 inches apart the first season. The following spring the choicer ones may be planted in permanent quar- ters in groups of three or more, or in larger groups in the shrubbery bor- der, or to the rear of hardy perennials, two or three feet apart. In two or three years they should be taken out, the beds heavily manured, the plants reset and more room given each ; They can also be sown in the open ground in spring, but would not likely flower until the second year. per pkt. 2240 Qold Medal Hybrids.
