bEL/mx'5 Perfected E/irly Flowerinq 



Japanese and Chinese Chrysanthemums. 



Remarkable new class, raised by a celebrated South of France specialist, 

 who, by persevering selection and skillful hybridizing, obtained a series of 200 

 varieties of early flowering Chrysanthemums that in his latitude bloom con- 

 tinually from June until frost. The seed which we offer has been gathered 

 from the complete collection of Mr. Delaux, and will produce an endless 

 variety of magnificent flowers of superb colors, ninety per cent, of which he 

 claims will come double, and mostly of the Japanese type, differing essentially 

 from the latter in more dwarf and branching habit, and in consequence more 

 abundant blooming. While we in the North cannotexpect the Delaux Chrysan- 

 themums to bloom as early as in the sunny South of France, yet they will precede 

 the regular Chinese and Japanese Chrysanthemums by several weeks, especially 

 it the seed be started in the house early in the spring and the plants removed 

 to the open ground. (See cut.) Pkt. 25
