CHRYSANTHEMUM. Large -Flowered (C. sinense). 2-4 ft. This is 

 the parent of the modern large-flowered hybrid varieties. The heads are 

 much larger than formerly, the leaves thicker and less sharply cut. This

 Both are hardy and the culture the same. Cuttings, if well rooted, will

 but little larger from time to time will increase the size of bloom. Reset 

 in spring.
