NEV^^ CHRYSANTHEMU:?! 



FRUTESCENS, PARIS DAISY 



OR MARGUERITE. 



Mrs. F. Sander. In this we have unquestionably the 

 most important flowering plant introduced in many years, 

 and now grown extensively for cut flowers, aLso inval- 

 uable for the amateur's conservatory and window garden, 

 it succeeding in any light, sunny position. Unlike all 

 other Marguerites, its color is of the purest glistening 

 white throughout; in size it frequently measures 5 inches 

 across; the centre of the flower is a mass of closely 

 arranged fringed florets; these are surrounded or edged 

 by the broad, shining white ray petals, forming a flower 

 which reminds one forcibly of a glorified double Pyre- 

 thrum. These are produced on long stems with a free, 

 dom not known in other varieties of the Marguerite. 

 25 cts. each; $2.50 per doz, 



DREER'S PRIZE CINERARIAS.
