Giant, Double 

100% Double Florets! 
A Milestone in Delphinium Achievement 
ae PRODUCE for America a new race of Delphiniums, certain to yield superb 
masses of blooms in true, separate colors and 100 per cent double—for years 
that was a vision and ambition here at J. & P. Now it has been realized—the 
result of many years of hybridizing and study in the J. & P. Department of Plant Re- 
search. Here are the fruits of this real advance in Delphinium breeding. 
These are the remarkable new varieties that 
have won instant favor everywhere. Giant Hybrids 
possessing all the most desirable qualities—wel- 
comed for their 100 per cent double florets, true- 
ness to color and rugged spikes not easily blown 
down by the wind. 
Visitors to our experimental grounds have been 
surprised and delighted to see the astonishing dis- 
play of these gorgeous new varieties, and to learn 
that they were hybridized in the rigid climate of 
northern New York State. To see over 300,000 
plants blooming in our fields is a sight long to be 
remembered. From this time-tested panorama, the 
plants have been selected for your garden in 1941. 
Now you can control Delphinium color and 
planting schemes. As the pictures so attractively 
display, each is a different color and each comple- 
ments the others; you will want all five. They 
are truly northern—hardy, disease-resistant, uni- 
form in growth, perennial in habit. The huge 
spikes have a definite advantage in their ‘‘all-out- 
at-once”’ habit of florets.
