A FIELD OF 
STOKES ASTERS 
(STOKESIA, Cornflower Aster) 
This field of mature STOKESIA, in full 
bloom in our nursery (see young plants on 
opposite page) is a vista of incredible 
beauty. Delicate blue, Aster-like flowers 
bloom in late summer .. . a rare and un- 
usual color in late autumn. 
OUR FIELDS OF HARDY PHLOX 
ARE AN UNFORGETTABLE SIGHT 
Motorists come from miles around just to 
pass these colorful fields—row upon row of 
every brilliant and pastel color imaginable 
from white, delicate blues and pinks to the 
most vivid reds and purples. So breath-tak- 
ingly lovely, it is impossible to describe.

3,000 DICENTRA SEEDLINGS 
PLOWED UNDER .. . BUT 
A LOVELY NEW STAR 
IS BORN 
Hybridizing is not always a very 
rewarding operation. However, 
this time, we are happy to plow 
under an entire field of Dicentra 
seedlings because we had obtain- 
ed one exceedingly rare specimen. 
Here President Grullemans 
and his son Winslow are 
marking the original selec- 
tion. This most remarkable 
new Bleeding Heart has been 
named “‘Dicentra, Bounti- 
ful’’ since it produces such 
an abundance of flowers and 
blooms all summer. Compare 
it with the others in this field 
—— Bountituleseis still install 
flower while the others have 
long since faded.
