CHRISTMAS GOLD 



Scored 90 Points by the Chrysanthemum Society of America, December 14, 1917 



Here is the most profitable Pompon to date 



A seedling of the widely grown and very popular Baby Pompon, the clear, deep golden yellow of its regu- 

 larly formed little blooms makes a brilliant exhibit. The habit of growth is that of the parent variety, but its 

 greatest merit is that its season is December 15 to 20, after practically all other pompons are past. It will 

 coin money for everyone who has it at Christmas. 



What good judges say of it: 



The box of flower.s of Christmas Gold pompon came safely 

 and I would be glad to get 500 rooted cuttings of this variety, 

 and wofild be willing to pay $30.00 per hundred for same. Should 

 you decide to put Christmas Gold on the market this spring, 

 please advise whether you can let me have the number men- 

 tioned, payment to be made before shipment of cuttings. — 

 Charles M. Weaver, Ronks, Pa., December 19, 1918. 



The box of Christmas Gold pompon mum came to hand in 

 good shape. It is a splendid flower and in my opinion a won- 

 derful flower to have through the whole month of Pecember and 

 especially at Christmas. Wish we had had a thousand bunches 

 of It this season at Christmas time. I hope you will see your 

 way to grow a big stock and sell a lot of it to our Detroit 

 growers, so we will have it to sell in our Detroit retail stores 

 next Christmas. — E. \. Fetters, Detroit, Mich., January 3, 1.919. 



The yellow pompon chrysanthemum, Christmas Gold, reached 

 us December 19 in perfect condition. To our mind the sale of 

 this flower at Christmas would be limited only by the supply 

 to be had. It has remarkable keeping qualities and at this 

 date, January 4, it is still in a fairly good condition. We feel 

 that you have a good thing. — Gade Bros. Co., Washington, D. C, 

 January 4, 1919. 



Your late blooming pompon, Christmas Gold, was received 

 December 19. Half the bunch we kept in our icebox and the 

 other half I took home with me. Those I took home remained in 

 good condition until December 26, and those in the icebox until 

 December 28, when the flowers were still good, but the foliage 

 had shriveled. The variety, in my opinion, is a very good one for 

 working up, not only for Christmas, but all through Decemljer, 

 when there is a scarcity of the smaller yellow flowers. Christmas 

 (Jold seems to be a good shipper; it reached us In perfect con- 

 dition.— Max Schllng, New York, December 10, 1919. 



Young stock will be in great demand after next season, when its merit has become known to the growers.
