40631. Chrysanthemum cinerariaefolium (Trev.) Vis. 



" Glaucous perennial, slender, 12 to 15 inches high ; stems unbranched, 

 with a few short, scattered hairs below the flower ; leaves long-petioled, 

 silky beneath, with distant segments ; involucral scales scarious and 

 whitish at the apex. Dalmatia. Said to be the chief source of Dalma- 

 tian insect powder. Rarely cultivated as a border plant. Common in 

 botanic gardens." (Bailey, Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture, vol. 2, 

 p. 757.) 



40632. Chrysanthemum cocctneum Willd. 



See S. P. I. Nos. 31103 and 40512 for previous introductions and de- 

 scription. 



40633. Chrysanthemum coronarium L. 



"Annual, 3 to 4 feet ; leaves bipinnately parted, somewhat clasping or 

 eared at the base, glabrous, the segments closer together than in C. cari- 

 natum; involucral scales broad, scarious ; rays lemon colored or nearly 

 white. July to September. The full double forms, with rays reflexed 

 and imbricated, are more popular than the single forms. This and 

 0. carinatum are the common summer chrysanthemum. This is common 

 in old gardens, and is also somewhat used for bedding and pot culture." 

 (Bailey, Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture, vol. 2, p. 754.) 



40634. Chrysanthemum corymbosum L. 



40635. Chrysanthemum grande (L.) Hook. f.

 oblong, often lyrate, coarsely toothed ; flower heads large, solitary, ray- 

 less, golden yellow, to 2 inches across." (Bailey, Standard Cyclopedia of 

 Horticulture, vol. 2, p. 758.) 



40636. Chrysanthemum sp. 



Received as Chrysanthemum haussknechtii, the place of publication of 

 which has not yet been found. 



40637. Chrysanthemum lacustre Brotero. 



" Perennial ; endlessly confused with C. maximum in gardens, and the 

 two species are very variable and difficult to distinguish ; the flowers can 

 hardly be told apart. C. lacustre is a taller and more vigorous plant, 

 and sometimes it is branched at the top, bearing three heads, while C. 

 maximum is always 1-headed, and the leaves in that species are much 

 narrower. Height, 3 to 6 feet; stem sparsely branched; leaves partly 

 clasping, ovate-lanceolate, with coarse, hard teeth; rays about 1 inch 

 - long; pappus of the ray 2 to 3 eared. Portugal, along rivers, swamps, 

 and lakes." (Bailey, Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture, vol 2, p. 757.)

40639. Chrysanthemum macrophyllum Waldst. and Kit.

 rays white with yellowish tinge, the disk yellow. June, July ; an out- 

 door plant. Hungary." (Bailey, Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture, 

 vol. 2, p. 758.)
