Early Large-Flowering 

 Chrysanthemums 



Price, 15c each; any 3 for 40c; 12 for $1.48. 



So many persons have asked for varieties of Chrysanthe- 

 mums that would flower before frost comes in the fall. 

 We here offer the very best early "Mums," so you can 

 see them flower in the garden. 

 ADVANCE — The earliest flowering large white; has been 



had in bloom in July. 

 EARLY SNOW— The earliest of all white "Mums." 



Superb. 

 ESTELLE (or Polly Rose) — Pure snow-white; literally 



so vers the plant. 

 GLORY OF THE PACIFIC— A lovely shade of bright- 

 est pink; large and fine. 

 MONROVIA — By far the best; very early; yellow, rich 



and fine. 

 OCTOBER FROST — Purest snow-white; fairly glistens 



in its purity. 

 YELLOW ADVANCE— By far the best; very early; 



yellow, rich. 



Hardy Pompon 

 Chrysanthemums 



Price, 15c each; any 3 for 40c; 12 for $1.48. 



These beautiful varieties are again very popular for outdoor 

 bedding purposes. They are quite hardy, and with but a slight 

 covering of leaves or coarse stable litter during the winter will take 

 care of themselves after once planted, and produce an abundant, 

 almost lavish, profusion of bloom: and the plants lend a colora- 

 tion to the garden just at a time when other plants have been 

 destroyed by frost and are looking their worst. Frost does not 

 materially affect the flowering, and it will frequently happen that 

 an armful of flowers can be cut after a sharp frost. 



BABY, or GOLDEN BUTTON — Deep golden-yellow; covers the 



plant. 

 BRIGHT EYES — As the name implies, each flower has a bright 



eye. As the outer petals unfold they are bluish white and the 



unfolded petals, showing the reverse side, present an orange 



apricot. 

 BUENA — Very small flowers. Color, golden-bronze. Cannot be 



too highly recommended to those desiring small, mid-season 



pompons. 

 CHRISTMAS GOLD — Late flowering Color, very bright 



yellow. 

 CLARE — A very free flowering variety ot the purest white. 

 ETHEL — A bright red baby pompon. Gorgeous in color and 



free flowering. Is also exceptionally fine when grown as a pot 



plant. 

 FIRE BIRD — While not extra early, this is the best early red 



we have seen. Color, very bright. 

 UVALDA — The earliest white. Sometimes shows a slight shade 



of pink when first opening, but becomes pure white when fully 



developed. 

 ZORA — An early bright yellow. This is the earliest good yellow 



pompon we know of.
