HARDY POMPON CHRYSANTHEMUMS. 



These are now universally popular for outdoor 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 beautv to the garden just at a time when other plants have been destroyed 

 by frost arid are looking their worst. Frost does not materially affect the flow- 

 ering, and it will frequently happen that an armful of flowers can be cut late in 

 November. They are quite hardy if planted in a well-drained position, and, 

 with a slight covering of leaves or litter during the winter, will take care of 

 themselves after once planted.
