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 thay 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 of the purest white. 

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



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

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



developed.

bloom.

pompon we know of.
