Wm. Swayne. 
Chrysanthemums. 
The Chrysanthemum, next to the 
Rose, is at present the most fashiona- 
ble flower. Its remarkable diversity 
of size, form and coloring, added to its 
freedom of bloom, at a season when all 
other flowers have faded, render it a 
plant eminently worthy of care and 
attention. Within the past few years 
marked attention has been paid to the 
Chrysanthemum, and flowers of enor- ~ 
mous size, with beautiful color and 
form in the Chinese, and diversity of 
shape and hue in the Japanese section, 
are the result of the care bestowed. 
It is invaluable as a border or pot 
plant ; its chief requirements are plenty 
of water and a rich soil. Sunny, warm 
situations suit it best and prolong its 
season of bloom until severe frosts set 
in. The increase of beauty and size 
has brought also an increase of tender- 
ness, so that in order to attain the best 
results the clumps should be lifted in 
the fall after the frost has cut the flow- 
ers and stored in a cold, dry cellar. 
They can be set close together and cov- 
ered with an inch or two of sand or 
soil. Water occasionally to prevent 
drying up. Early in spring plant in 
oyen border, or divide and pot if to be 
grown for house decoration or exhibi- 
tion. Our lists contain the best of the 
old sorts, the introductions of last sea- 
son and the novelties of 1889. As not 
@ poor sort appears in the lists, our 
eustomers can rely on any sort they 
may select as being desirable in every 
way.
