-DuPONT BLUE NO. 5 
$2.00 
This strain is the result of years of hybridization and 
selection by Mrs. Wm. K. DuPont of Wilmington, Dela- 
ware. Only those plants of superior merit were used in 
breeding, and the resulting seedlings carefully selected. 
Truly a race of super giants has been developed. 
The distinguishing characteristics of the new DuPont 
Violets are the extremely large flowers and foliage. Under 
ideal conditions the plants have produced flowers of 214” 
across! 
Because most of our customers do not have room for 
the 6 new DuPonts, DuPont Blue No. 5 and DuPont 
Silver Pink (the most popular) are described on Page 10, 
and the other four are listed in the Special Section for 
Collectors, Page 22. | E
