CHRYSANTHEMUM, ORIENTAL 



This Seed will produce Blooming Plants the first season. There are many people, 

 however, who do not realize how easily they may be grown from seed, and that 

 all of the magnificent new varieties were raised from hybridized seed, similar 

 to that we are now offering. This seed includes the Chinese or incurved — the 

 Japanese long-twisted-petalled kinds, the ostrich-plumed or feather-petalled, 

 early-flowering, etc.
