SELECT LIST OF 

 f-fardy Pompone Chrysanthemums 



These beautiful small-flowered varieties are again coming to 

 the front, and are certain to become popular for outdoor bed- 

 ding purposes. They are absolutely hardy, and produce an 

 abundant, almost lavish, profusion of blooms, and the plants 

 lend a coloration to the garden just at a time when other plants 

 have been destroyed by frost and are looking their worst. Frost 

 -dees not materially affect the flowering, and it will frequently 

 happen that an armful of flowers can be cut after a sharp frost. 

 The collection we offer embraces all the leading colors, and, 

 ■with but a slight covering of leaves or coarse stable litter during 

 tlie winter, will take care of themselves after once planted.
