We offer to the trade confident that there is nothing in our list it is more important they should have, as the 
wide circulation of our catalogue will doubtless create a local demand for these sorts. In addition to this we 
would say that the nine varieties so offered are worthy of a place in any collection no matter how large. The 
following are the sorts offered and shown on Colured Plate in our retail catalogue. 
No. 1. Golden Queen. Deep violet, reverse of petals silvery rose ; a charming contrast of color.

The variety in our retail catalogue shown in the engraving and also in the Colored Plate of the ROYAL 
JAPANESE CHRYSANTHEMUMS is, perhaps, the most unique sort in its color yet introduced and 
should be in every collection. It is a strong grower and remarkably prolific bloomer, producing its bright 
golden yellow flowers in the greatest profusion. The petals are long and wavy, drooping as shown in the cut 
above and on the Colored Plate in retail catalogue, which please see. Price, 2c. each ; $2.00 per dozen. 
EARLY COLLECTION. 
Although all of the Chrysanthemums are early 
enough to perfect their flowers in the open ground 
south of Baltimore, yet in the vicinity of New 
York and further north many of the late kinds 
sometimes do not, hence for such we name this 
Farly Collection, for the benefit particularly of 
residents of extreme Northern States.
