Hardy Pompon 

 Chrysanthemums 



These are the most brilliant and showy 

 fall 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 autumn leaves are 

 falling and 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. 

 Colors, red. pink, yellow, brown and white. 

 You can gather bushels of bloom the first 



season from this selected set of 8

Directions. We send you most of these in strong roots 

 Allow from Ij4 to 4 square feet of space for each. After the first 

 severe frost in the fall, cut down the tops to about 3 inches high, 

 and give the bed a good coat of half-rotted manure, which will 

 protect the plants and enrich the ground; dig this under in the 

 spring before new growth starts.
