DREER’S HARDY PLANTS 
Dreer’s Choice Garden Chrysanthemums 
Gorgeous autumn-blooming plants producing a lavish profusion of colorful flowers just at a time 
when other plants are beginning to fail. 
They are reasonably hardy if planted ia a well drained 
soil and covered with leaves or loose litter during the winter. 
Twelve New Varieties 
Offered by us for the first time this year 
Amelia (Pink Cushion). This variety has been offered under 
several other names. Among the early flowering sorts it is 
unique insofar as the early flowers come perfect and do not 
seem to sap the strength of the plant as happens in many others. 
Compact and symmetrical plants forming a cushion of double 
lavender-pink flowers which begin to develop the latter part of 
August and continue to the last of October. 
Autumn Leaf. A very beautiful variety with deep fawn orange 
blooms beautifully suffused with bright carmine. 
__ Cavalier. A dazzling rich vermilion-red variety with medium 
sized single flowers. Early and very showy. 
= Chestnut Burr. Quaintly formed, perfectly double blooms of a 
cheerful chestnut red color. Of medium size and very free flow- 
ering. Always greatly admired. 
Distinction. A small, perfectly double, yellow flower with red 
tips. Blooms freely and is surely most distinct. 
Granny Scoville. A very large decorative or Aster flowered 
sort. Perfectly double blooms of a warm coral bronze. 
Harbinger. Compact, dwarf plants covered with good sized 
single flowers of a deep lavender-blue with a large white halo 
around the bright yellow disc. Very attractive. 
Lemonade. Large lemon yellow single flowers attractively suf- 
fused with red. Free flowering and of good color. 
New Hardy Chrysanthemum, Opal 
Splendid medium sized double flowers of an opalescent 
coppery rose changing to deep salmon flesh. 
Lovely, medium sized, double flowers combining a 
beautiful deep orange with a lively suffusion of bright carmine. 
Sensation. A sensational and strikingly attractive single yellow 
in which every petal is tipped with scarlet. 
The Chief. A very decided advance in hardy Chrysanthemums. 
The deep double blooms are bright rich scarlet with a golden 
reverse giving the flower an artistic appeal with their unusual 
showy color combination. A beautiful large flower. 
Any of the above: 35c each; $3.50 per doz.

New Giant-Flowered 
Single Chrysanthemums 
Our Novelties of 1934 
Another year’s experience with these twelve beautiful varieties 
shows them to be all that we predicted for them. They are an 
advance in color, size, and general attractiveness over older sorts. 
Hundreds of visitors have admired and commented most favorably 
upon them in our field again this year. We are in a position to 
offer them at a popular price. 
Indian Maid 
Amber Star. A lovely, shaggy, semi-double flower of an attrac- 
tive buff richly suffused with scarlet toward the petal tips. 
Enchantress. Splendid, large, semi-double blooms of a clear 
soft rose which is always greatly admired. 
Halo. So named on account of the white halo that separates the 
yellow center from the deep rose petals. 
Indian Maid. A most appealing and unusual large single variety 
of an artistic and lovely orange terra-cotta. 
Moonlight. Charming large blooms with pale blush petals ar- 
ranged around the small yellow center cushion. 
Persia. Well formed semi-double blooms of an interesting deep 
rosy carmine as found in some Persian rugs. 
Princess. An elegant single flower with many long, graceful, 
pure white petals set off by the small yellow center. 
Redskin. A most unusual single of a unique orange-scarlet 
shading to coppery rose with age. 
Sunbright. A pure yellow single that glitters and scintillates in 
the sun and under artificial light. 
The Torch. Buming orange-scarlet with yellow crown around 
the yellow center. The reverse is golden yellow. Semi-double. 
Unique. Attractive not only for the lovely deep carmine-rose 
color but also for its unique semi-double form.

beautiful golden reverse and a bright yellow center.
