She New Weather 
Without question one of the finest lots of New Daffodils to come from Holland 
is known as the Weather Proof or John Evelyn Hybrids. In the autumn of 1946 and 
1947 the first bulbs were sent us by Grullemans of Holland. We, as well as several 
of our customers, have tested these and all unreservedly claim them to be the 
finest selection of short cup Daffodils they have ever seen. The flowers have twice 
or more the substance of the varieties now generally in use. Rain, snow or wind, 
as well as a burning hot sun, which frequently occur during the blooming season, 
do not affect them. All multiply very rapidly and do not require frequent trans- 
Brookville (New) Each 40c, Six $2.25, Doz. $4.10, 25 $7.50, 109 $26.09 
Giant flowers and a greatly improved form of the well known John Evelyn. 
It is distinguished by its tremendously heavy, broad, flat, white perianth and 
large, short, completely ruffled cup of pale iemon-yellow. A magnificent new 
hybrid of outstanding merit. It flowers freely and grows ruagedly; the gen- 
eral effect is bold and strong, yet handsome. One of the finest flowers for 
garden or cutting. Don’t miss including this variety in your next planting.

This is the giant of this fine group of hybrids. The flowers are huge. Perianth 
is pale ivory, the cup or crown very flaring and tinted a bright light golden 
yellow. Substance is incomparable. It was the largest Incomparabilis or short 
cup Daffodil shown at the New York Daffodil Show held in 1948. A 
superb variety. You will be astonished at its size and beauty. Excellent grower 
and very free blooming.

the best in this group. Like all others exceedingly free blooming and 
rapidly increasing.

Magnificent, heavy, thick, pure white, overlapping petals with pale yellow 
cup very flaring and short, beautifully ruffled. The inside edge of the cup 
shows delicate tinting of a broad, deeper yellow band, a most interesting 
variation in the soft over-all pale yellow shade of the cup. This also is one 
of the choicest John Evelyn hybrids destined to be a leader as soon as it 
becomes available generally.
