DELPHINIUM FROM SEED Delphinium seed can be planted either in August or early spring. Planted in August they will be sure to give bloom the next summer; planted in eaily spring they may give bloom the same summer. The main reason for giving August planting the preference is that the seed are right fresh then and are much more kire of germinating. The seed can be kept for two years if they are fully developed when gathered, well dried, stored in a tightly stoppered glass bottle and kept in the refrigerator. Oth. erwise they deteriorate very quick ly. Fresh seed germinate in about two weeks, but it sometimes takes several months for old seed, es pecially if not soaked, to come up. If you save your own seed, gath er them when the pod turns straw color, before it splits dry them in a • paper box top and plant them •as soon as they are thoroughly dry. You are sure to get good seedlings if you can plant them at once. If they must be kept, put them into a glass bottle and stop per very tightly. Any packet of delphinium seed, even those from the high priced “exclusive' growers, is likely to contain some inferior seed that will not germinate. It is best, if you can, to get them from a grow er in vour own section. Delphiniums are definitely lime lovers and even for the seed the soil should be slightly alkaline. The seed ao poorly in acid soil such as woodsearth or peat unless some lime is added to make it a little aikaline. A good soil mixture is one of half sand and half woods, earth or peat with lime added, well mixed and then sifted. Or in stead of lime add 2 tablespoonsful of bonemeal to a quart of soil mixture. Though seed need no fer tilizer the bonemeal will give enough lime and will not injure the sprouting seed because it disih. tegrates so slowly, nor will it be wasted because the soil can be emptied in the bed where the plants are set. It is best to plant the seed in pots or flats as they are such expensixe seed. Disinfect the soil after packing firmly in the container, by soak ing it with one of the disinfectants sold by seedsman or druggist. Let it stand 24 hours before planting. Soak the seeds overnight in warm water unless they are strictly fresh. Covei them very lightly (about 1-8 inch) with sifted soil and firm well with hand or a block of wood. Keep the pots or flats cool and moist. It is worth following the advice of a successful grower in the South and sterilize the soil in the bed Beautify Jgus| j without massage?
