J. & P: Giant Double Delphiniums 


[Rest in height and habit, these gorgeous new American Hybrid 
Delphiniums have been hybridized and developed in the rigorous 
climate of northern New York to be truly hardy, disease-resistant, 
uniform in growth, truly perennial. They have stiff, wiry stems just the 
right height and will produce several fine spikes per plant. Every plant 
you receive has shown its vigor by living through the extreme winter of 
1939 in our open fields at Newark, New York, and proved its perform- 
ance in the glorious display of over 300,000 plants in bloom this summer. 
If the spikes are cut close to the ground after blooming next June, you 
may have as many as three flowering periods in a season. Order liberally 
at these low prices, and your plants will be nicely established in early

More Favorites for Fall Planting 


OON come those lovely mornings with the fall feel in the air, when all mortals blessed with 
“oreen fingers’ again feel the irresistible urge to plant. And what could be more pleasing 
to Mother Nature, for Autumn is the ideal time of year to plant some of the finest Peren- 

nial Flowers which will remain to grace your garden for many years. 

For well-established borders and beds next spring and summer, we have included in this selected 
list those which by experience have been proved to benefit from planting in the fall. As ex- 
perienced gardeners know, much time is thus saved. In spring, a thousand different tasks press 
for immediate attention. Now, you not only put the plants in weak spots still fresh in memory 
from studying the summer and fall bloom, but you also insure robust, well-developed plants 
with no open spaces even the first season. Here is your answer to the problem of bulb shortages 
this fall. 


Fall plants should be mulched preferably with straw or marsh hay so the ground is covered, to prevent alternate 
thawing and freezing. Complete, simple instructions for planting and care will be sent gladly, with your order. 
If followed, we guarantee results and will replace next spring what plants you were unsuccessful in wintering. 


We are proud of this new race of Hardy Geums introduced by 
J. & P. Spring blooming, they may be planted in either sun or 

@ u m S half shade. The flowers are larger and long lasting; the foliage is 
lustrous green all summer. Favored for boutonnieres. Easy to 
grow, invaluable for borders, beds and rockeries. Plant now for a 
glorious display next May and June. 


Fire Opal 


A recent introduction, and a 
worthy one! Dazzling scar-

Princess Juliana 


Masses of pure orange- 
yellow flowers from May- 
June, the largest blooms of

Invaluable for the spring 
flowers; effective all summer 
with its rich dark green 
foliage and occasional 
blooms. 40c ea.; 3 for $1. 





Fire Opal 


Gypsophila 


Bristol Fairy 


This tall-growing, double white Baby’s 
Breath is a joy in any garden—gives a 
a lacy pattern that can’t be obtained in 
any other way. Blooms start in June. 
Plants grow 20 to 24 in. high and about 
the same width. 


Rosy Veil ¢ Repens 


A lower-growing, double Baby’s Breath

Heliopsis 
Summer Gold 
(Hardy Zinnia) 


This is the first year we have offered 
this fine new variety. One of the most 
effective summer flowering plants that 
bring a bright and cheery spot of rich 
gold which never fails to attract atten- 
tion—at a season when many gardens 
need more color. The picture at right 
shows just a few plants at one corner of 
the test block in our nursery fields this 
summer. The excellent daisy-like semi- 
double flowers are 4 in. across, borne 
very profusely from June till frost. 
They last a long time in bouquets. 
After first bloom the plants should be 
cut back immediately for another crop 
which repeats very quickly. 3 ft.

rather than to reach the very tall stages of the old-fashioned 
varieties. They bloom profusely in August and September.

almost twice as large. 3 for 85c. 


Trollius 
Golden Queen 


Another flower which has gained real popularity 
in recent years, possessing many of the desired

quite equals Trollius Golden Queen. Quite tall, 
almost 30 in. Plant in semi-shaded ground which 
remains fairly damp. Blooms prolifically in July. 
50c ea.; 3 for $1.25; 10 for $3.50

Th B New for 

@ Deacon 1941

than the older Lythrum Rosea used so much in 
mass plantings in spite of not having a clear color. 
The neat long-lasting clear deep carmine-red 
flowers are borne on large spikes, followed with 
side spikes almost to the ground. Very versatile, 
thriving equally in wet semi-shade and open, dry, 
sunny locations. 31% to 4 ft. Blooms continuously, 
July to frost.

Vinca Minor 


Bowles 


A far superior form of one of the most popular 
ground covers for banks, shady or unsightly 
spots, with repeating blooms of Alice-blue 
flowers, and much larger flowers than old 
varieties. Most satisfactory of all flowering 
ground-cover plants; the foliage is always clean, 
never rusting or turning brown.

strawberry with bright yellow center disc. Grows 
vigorously to about 4 ft., and blooms in September. 
You will love it all fall for its remarkable gaiety 
and brilliance. 3 for $1.

plant is 2% ft. tall. An outstanding novelty.

eye. The individual flowers are large and add 
infinitely to the effect of both garden and bouquets. 
It’s No. 1 for general usefulness. Open, pleasing 
habit of growth—5 ft. plants. Blooms middle of 
September. 50c ea.; 3 for $1.25. 


Harrington's Pink

foliage. Plants grow 414 ft. 3 for $1.

the whites. Ultimate height, 4 ft. 3 for $1.

wild Asters of the fields, patient horticultural skill has brought to American 
gardens these modern beauties, so easy to grow, with immense flowers and

later than most, beginning after September 15.
