Magnificent Wew American Chrysanthemum, 
“PHILADELPHIA” 
Fhis Peerless Freasure is absolutely without a rival. #£ fas ereafed the Greatest Sensation and 
reecived fhe Highest Awards wherever Shown. 
i H. GRAHAM, of Philadelphia, one of the most distinguished and enthusiastic Florists in the United States, the 
raiser of this superb Ixcurvep Japanzss, despatched by special messenger six blooms whick unfortunately only reached 
us on the evening of the second day of the great exhibition at the Royal Aquarium, November 7th, 1894. We had 
them immediately staged and brought under the notice of the Chairman and Committee of the National Chrysanthemum — 
Society, and they unanimously awarded a SILVER-GILT MEDAL. These blooms having been cut and packed for ten 
days, prove it to be one of the most lasting flowers yet raised—invaluable both to Exhibitors and Growers for Market on 
account of the enormous size of its flowers. 
The flowers were of-the finest globular form, six inches in diameter, and of the most delicate creamy white, the tips tinged 
with sulphur-yellow. The petals are purely incurved, with slight inflections to the right and left, as in the Japatiese. 
IT HAS RECEIVED MORE HIGHEST AWARDS THAN BNY OTHER SEEDLING THE FIRST YEAR OF EXHIBITING 
We are pleased to state the ENTIRE DISTRIBUTION in EUROPE of this Sterling Novelty has been placed in our hands.
