September Flowering Chrysanthemums. 



The illustration below shows an entirely new race of Japanese Chrysanthemums, invaluable on account 

 of their early flowering. We are indebted to M. Delaux, of France, for this new departure, and it is doubtful 

 if any more' valuable acquisition has been secured in the long annals of successful hybridization. Out of over 

 100 sorts which we tested we have selected those named below as the most desirable ; they embrace, as will be 

 seen, the most desirable colors. Hitherto the great, objection to Chrysanthemums in our K or! hern States was 

 that the frost destroyed most of the flowers before coming to maturity, but now this difficulty is overcome, and 

 this grand advance must surely give an impetus to Chrysanthemum culture hitherto unknown." Below we append 

 a list of varieties, with descriptions.
