HENRY A. DREER, PHILADELPHIA— HARDY PERENNIAL PLANTS 



23 



HARDY POMPON CHRYSANTHEMUMS 



These are now universall}'' popular for outdoor bedding, 

 and, considering their many good qualities, there is uo cause 

 for surprise to see them cultivated so extensively. They pro- 

 duce a lavish profusion of blooms, giving color, life and beauty 

 to the garden just at a time when other plants have been de- 

 stroyed 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 if planted in a well-drained position, and, 

 with a slight covering of leaves or litter during the wiuter, 

 will take care of themselves after once planted.
