HARDY POnPONE 



Chrysanthemums. 



These beautiful varieties are now universally popular for out- 

 door bedding, and, considering their many good qualities, there 

 is no cause for surprise to see them cultivated so extensively. 

 They produce a lavish profusion of blooms, giving color, life 

 and beauty to the garden just at a time when other plants have 

 been destroyed by frost and are looking their worst. Frost 

 does not materially affect the : flowering, and it will frequently 

 happen that an armful of flowers can be cut late in November. 

 They are quite hardy, and, with but a slight covering of leaves 

 or litter during the winter, will take care of themselves after 

 once planted.
