CHRYSANTHEMUMS. |P

English collection, which, during the season of 1907, we found in full 
bloom in a nursery in the vicinity of London as early as September 20th. 
We have, during the past two seasons, given them a careful trial in our 
own grounds, and while but few of them in our climate showed fully 
developed flowers before the end of September, all of them perfected 
their blooms during the month of October, giving a wealth of bloom
