BRISTOL KOREANS 
for 1941 
To develop “Better Chrysanthemums” for your garden is just 
one of the services that we will continue to maintain. Accord¬ 
ingly, we take considerable pride in offering these new con¬ 
tributions on this page. You will find them as good as we say. 
Bristol originations which include also “Better Hardy 
Perennials” have found their way—often indirectly—to 
almost every garden here, and many abroad. More to the 
point, they are retained, which means simply that we do the 
experimenting. This same careful selection is reflected in 
everything this Catalog offers for the hardy garden. 
The loyal patronage of our many friends has made these 
Better Bristol Introductions possible, for which we say most 
sincerely, “Thank You.” 
MRS. PIERRE S. DU PONT III 
(Seedling 19-38 C. K.) 
Thousands of visitors here at Bristol during the Mum display 
last season were enraptured by this latest Bristol creation—as 
were visitors to the lovely du Pont Gardens at Wilmington, 
where it was the featured variety. The dominant shade is soft 
peach-pink, tinted with rosy salmon and fawn, the whole over¬ 
cast with an indescribably luminous sheen. The very large 
shapely double flowers, in combination with the hardy, vigorous, 
free-branching plant and a new color effect, come nearer to per¬ 
fection than any variety developed here, or of which we know. 
In full flower early October. 2J4 to 3 feet. Illustrated in color 
on page 1. Price: 75 cts. each, $2 for 3, $7.50 per doz. 
MILKY WAY—A New Type 
(Seedling 2-38 C. N.) 
Another Bristol departure and the forerunner of a distinct and 
valuable type. Remarkable for the intensity of its milky white 
coloring in the open flower, contrasting with the creamy yellow 
buds; again for the luxuriant rich green foliage clothing the stem 
right down to the soil. The handsome, semi-double, informal blos¬ 
soms, with broad, overlapping petals of unusual texture, carried in 
branching sprays of 5 to 6, are more frost-resistant than any other 
early white kind. Plant is very hardy and vigorous. A different 
and valuable addition — in full flower late September. Height, 
234 to 3 feet. 
50 cts. each, $1.40 for 3, $2.50 for 6, $5 per doz. 
EUGENE A. WANDER 
Have you longed for a big, hardy Mum that would flower before 
those early October frosts? Well, here it is—a brilliant, glistening 
golden yellow beauty in full bloom by September 20 and so free 
that the stocky plant is almost obscured by its branching clusters 
of perfectly formed double flowers. Hardy and easily grown, it 
requires no special pinching or handling to produce flowers 434 to 
5 inches across—larger, if disbudded. Fine also for pot-culture. 
Note: Occasional plants assume bronze-yellow tints, but are just 
as attractive. Height, 1 ^ to 2 feet. 
75 cts. each, $2 for 3, $3.75 for 6, $7.50 per doz.
