New Chrysanthemum Frutescens or Marguerite. 

 Mrs. F. Sander. 



A most valuable flowering pot plant and which, like its predeces- 

 sors, will be grown extensively for cut fowers during the winter, 

 while its pure white color will make it more valuable than any as a 

 pot plant for Easter decorations. 



Unlike all other Marguerites, its color is of the purest glistening 

 white throughout; in size it frequently measures 5 inches across; 

 the centre of the flower is a mass of closely arranged fringed 

 florets ; these are surrounded or edged by the broad, shining white 

 ray petals, forming a flower which reminds one forcibly of a 

 glorified double Pyrethrum. It is but rarely that a flower comes 

 single, and when such is the case, they are as beautiful as the 

 double forms ; they are produced on long stems with a freedom not 

 known in other varieties of the Marguerite.
