Flower Seeds— 123 



CHRYSANTHEMUM 



The single annual chrysanthe- 

 mums are extremely showy and 

 effective. They are daisy-like in 

 shape, and are much used for cut 

 flower purposes. The perennial 

 sorts are both single and double. 

 All are easily grown from seeds. 

 Taken collectively, they embrace 

 many colors. The single annual 

 chrvsanthemums are called Painted 

 Daisies. One of the single perennial 

 chrvsathemunis bears the name of 

 French Marguerite or Paris Daisy. 

 The double perennial sorts, from 

 China and .Japan, im-lude the most 

 brilliant of the late autumn flowers.

 the large dowering chrys-

 are hardy. The color
