CHASTE WHITE DELPHINIUMS 
The New HOODACRES WHITES 
One of the loveliest flowers imaginable is a well grown White 
Delphinium. Its beautiful formation and glistening purity charm 
when other white flowers do not appeal, and even one spike 
introduced in a vase of others makes the high-light, so essential 
to a perfect picture. Upon the vigorous foundation stock of 
Hoodacres plantings has been born a new race, called HOOD- 
ACRES WHITES, a revelation to the world and the dream of 
many come true; the most surprising Delphinium development 
of the century. 
After many years of skillful endeavor by the breeders of the 
world to produce a good semi-double White Delphinium, it 
remained for HOODACRES, in America, to bring forth this re¬ 
markable accomplishment. And it has been done with the few¬ 
est possible intermediate stages of development. The magnifi¬ 
cent spikes of purest white are carried as tall and on just as 
rugged plants as the ones with color. This will be observed in 
the photographs reproduced in this booklet. There are no dupli¬ 
cates of these WHITES anywhere in the world. 
Albinos of the past have been weak and of little worth. Quite 
as by magic these white creations came, leaving the hybridiz¬ 
ers puzzling as to how it was brought about. But the Unseen 
is a world of actuality and there all things first exist. All we can 
do is to co-operate in making the conditions on this plane 
suitable for the reception of such new things. 
Be wary of counterfeit "HOODACRES WHITE" Delphiniums. 
We can be in no way responsible for the character of seeds 
not grown and packeted here. 
JAPANESE IRIS AND A WHITE DELPHINIUM BORDER 
Newport, N. H.: "I am happy to report the safe arrival of the Japanese 
Iris. I planted them immediately in a prepared bed and am able to report 
growth of the foliage. I have had some breath-taking bloom already from 
the White Delphinium seeds I bought last year and am going in for a 
long solid border of Whites, which I know will be the sensation of the 
county when I get them going."
