AUTUMN, 1919 • PLANT HARDY PERENNIALS NOW 



HARDY PERENNIALS, continued 

 Hardy Pompon Chrysanthemums 



These are the most brilHant and showy autumn flowers 

 we have. They bloom so abundantly that, from a few 

 plants, armfuls of flowers can be gathered for indoors. Their 

 fresh, spicy fragrance has a charm no other flower possesses, 

 and the blooms come at a time when nearly all other flowers 

 have gone. See that they get well fertilized during the 

 summer, and the result will delight you for weeks before 

 winter closes in.
