Dreer's Hardy Garden Chrysanthemums 



The World's Best Collection 



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 in a well-drained soil and covered 

 with leaves or loose litter during the winter. We offer strong young plants. 



For a quarter of a century we have been selecting and producing new varieties of Chrysanthemums, 

 constantly endeavoring to increase their desirabihty and usefulness for garden display. 



As newer, better, and hardier varieties appear we are obliged to discard the older ones. You may rest 

 assured that the new ones selected in the same colors have qualities of superiority justifying their trial and 

 adoption by you.
