A seedling Chrvsanthemum raised by ourselves, and we have every 

 confidence in offering it as the best early yellow Chrysanthemum. 

 It is full of petals to the center and lasts a long time ; in fact, although very early, it can yet be made late, because it remains perfect on 

 the plant for such a length of time. We cut the first flowers on October 10th, days before anv other large yellow was ready, and had 

 perfect flowers to cut a month later. This grand variety will be invaluable for early cut flowers, and we believe will occupy the same 

 position among early varieties that Golden Wedding does among late ones. Price, Si. 00 per 100. See opinion below concerning this variety. 



Extract from Florists' Exchange: "Here we saw probably the finest hatch nf MARION HENDERSON around New York 

 or anywhere else, and here this variety is all and more than is claimed for it. On October 5th the whole house was forming into a mass of 

 bright yellow. Its quality and its earliness mean dollars and cents, and we were most enthusiastic over the beauty and good quality of 

 MARION HENDERSON."
