 becoming suffused with rose and bronze tints. The

SEPTEMBER BRONZE 



The bronze tints of Autumn are beautifully reflected in about 

 the shapeliest little pompon blossoms you have ever seen: 

 quantities of them shading from golden bronze to intense 

 warm bronze simply cover the plant from mid-September 

 on through into November or killing frost. The color effect 

 is always good because the plant is uniformly attractive all 

 through — no jaded appearance at any time. We say Septem- 

 ber Bronze is absolutely the most colorful chrysanthemum to 

 date. 



Price, 40c each; $4.00 per doz. 



SEPTEMBER GOLD 



Brilliant golden-yellow blossoms, trim and neat, twenty-five 

 or more to a spray, completely cover the shapely, well rounded 

 plants by mid-September and go on and on until the season's 

 end. Colorful mounds, the plants are eighteen inches in 

 height — much wider — the first season. Immensely prolific 

 and somewhat earlier in succeeding years. A real advance.
