CHRYSANTHEMUMS. 



This magnificent class of summer blooming annuals should 

 be in every flower garden. We know of no class of flowers 

 which will produce such results with so little care. The flowers 

 are borne on long stems and are represented by a great va- 

 riety of colors. The single ones are particularly handsome, 

 many of them producing tricolor flowers of great brilliancy in 

 coloring. The Double Perennial sorts should be sown early 

 in the spring for flowering the same fall.
