 TYPES OF SINGLE FLOWERS 



Brightness. A very useful flower for decorative purposes. 



Merstham Jewel. This variety forms a splendid bush. Each shoot 

 should be disbudded to one flower. 



Herbert Williams. One of the most delightful single Chrysan- 

 themums. 



Mensa. This flower resembles the variety Mary Anderson in form, 

 but it is larger, and the florets possess greater substance than 

 the older variety.
