GOOD WHITE POMPONS. 



Will you please give me the names of 

 two good white pompon chrysanthe- 

 mums, an early and a late one! I want 

 to buy some stock plants now, to pro- 

 pagate from next spring. "Will 100' 

 plants yield 400 cuttings! H. A. C. 



Elva is a fine early white. Queen of 

 Whites is a beautiful creamy white. 

 Helen Newberry, with large flowers, is 

 good for Thanksgiving or even later. 

 One hundred stock plants should give 

 you several times 400 cuttings if 

 properly taken care of. ' C. W.

blooms all come pure white. It is in 

 good season for Thanksgiving and will 

 keep until Christmas. C. W. 



TURNER AS A POT PLANT. 



Nothing at present in sight compares 

 with William Turner as an exhibition 

 chrysanthemum; for size of bloom it is 

 at present without an equal, and it is 

 an easy doer, so that success with it is 

 general. The big, pure white, perfectly 

 formed blooms were the feature of 

 many an autumn flower show. 



Now comes Paul Ryee, of the Bay 

 house Floral Co., Boise, Idaho, with an 

 illustration of Turner as a pot plant. 

 The plant was grown in an 8-ineh pot 

 and carried seven blooms on disbudded 

 growths. 



I.ATE CHBTSANTHEMUMS. 



Will you kindly tell us what varieties 

 of chrysanthemums to grow that will ' 

 bloom after Thanksgiving? We have 

 Dean, Nonin, Nagoya, White Bonnaffon 

 and Enguehard, but they all are over 

 by November 25. We should like to 

 have several later ones. Please give 

 us information in regard to the latest 

 varieties in the market, so that we can 

 buy stock. W,-(f M. & S.

SPEED IN SCHENECTADY. 



One of the "live wires" of the trade 

 in Schenectady, N. Y., as proved by his 

 record in that city, is G. E. Kopper,. 

 proprietor of the Bosendale Greenhouses 

 & Nurseries. It is only three years 

 since he started in business in Schenec- 

 tady, yet in that time he has built up 

 a good trade, added a large greenhouse 

 and bought a store this year, and is 

 now looking forward to opening another 

 store next spring. This move is contem- 

 plated because of the good results which, 

 followed the purchase of the store of 

 J. H. Frederick, at 126 Jay street, last 

 spring. Since the date of its acquisi- 

 tion, May 1, the concern's sales have 

 doubled. 



The new greenhouse, 40x166 feet, 

 which was erected by the Lord & Burn- 

 ham Co. last spring, is shown in the 

 accompanying illustration. Half is de- 

 voted to pot plants, and the other half, 

 which is shown here, has been occupied 

 by mums. On the bench to the left is- 

 Charles Eazer, which, Mr. Kopper says, 

 has been his best white this season. 

 About 8,000 chrysanthemums were 

 planted this fall. For the other crops,, 

 there are potted up about 80,000 bulbs,. 

 2,500 lilies and 15,000 geraniums, in 

 addition to which are grown sweet peas,, 

 snapdragons, smilax, swainsonas, Boston, 

 ferns, cyclamens, begonias and primulas. 



The varieties you name are all natu- 

 rally late and should carry until Thanks- 

 giving, provided you fan your house 

 cool, keep it shaded and air freely, I 

 would suggest the following as good 

 late varieties; buds for securing late 

 flowers should be taken on or about the 

 date named: Mile. Jeanne Nonin, white, 

 October 1, extra late; Major Bonnaffon, 

 yellgw, September 15; Mrs. Jerome 

 Jones, white, September 15; Yellow 

 Jerome Jones, September 15; Wells'
