CHRYSANTHEMUMS. 



SIX SPLENDID 



Exhibition Varieties. 



Introductions of 1913. 



Miss Hazel de Forest. From the crown bud produces a very 

 large flower of terra cotta. Late buds produce blooms of wine red 

 and the plant is a very strong, healthy grower. 

 Miss Clara Banghart. One of the strongest growers. Chestnut 

 shading to scarlet in color and the flower carries itself perfectly straight. 

 Gertrude Peers. In some respects a duplicate of Pockett's Crim- 

 son, save that every petal naturally reflexes, showing just the true 

 deep crimson. This variety, unlike many of its color, never burns 

 in the sun. 

 Mrs. Q. W. C. Drexel. A beautiful ball of a delicate pink, the 

 exact shade of the old Lady Hopetoun. Unlike the latter variety 

 the stem is easily able to carry the massive flower direct. One of 

 the handsomest varieties ever introduced. $1.00 each; $9.00 per 

 doz. 

 Mrs. Wm. Tricker. Lovely flower of the Enchantress shade of 

 pink. Petals just curve at the tips, making an artistic and charming 

 variety. Admired perhaps more than any other at the fall Shows. 

 Sl.OO'each; $9.00 per doz. 

 Ursula Qriswold. Sport from W. A. Ethrington, identical with 

 that variety in everything except color, which is a soft creamy white. 

 A prize-winner at many of the Shows last fall. 

 Price: Any of the above, except where noted, 50 cts. each; $5.00 

 per doz. One each of the 6 varieties for $3.50.

 selected are such that have made their mark on the exhibition 

 table. At the same time great care has been taken to confine

 eliminating those which require special skill and facilities to 

 bring to perfection.
