120 THE GOLD MINE 



The hardy pompon chrysanthemums should not be 

 left out. There are now about 100 kinds of these. 

 They are very effective when you most need them. 

 They are in their full glory about the time of the first 

 frosts and continue to bloom like hardy asters some 

 time after, or until the killing frosts come. 



COREOPSIS LANCEOLATA. 



This is very hardy and takes good care of itself with 

 but little attention after it is once established. It has 

 beautiful double white flowers, small but fine. 



COREOPSIS GRANDIFLORA. 



has golden yellow flowers on long stems. 



THE SUNFLOWER. 



This is an annual, but it has been so improved that 

 we would hardly know it. The latest is an immense 

 head and instead of a rim of yellow around the outer 

 edges the face is one grand full glorious flower. This 

 can be used in the background along with castor beans.
