New American Chrysanthemums 



All received first-class certificates from the C. S. A. 



F. E. Nash. Light pink Japanese. A very handsome, heavy 

 growing variety, that will easily make its mark. Take bud 

 not earlier than August 20th to get the best colored bloom. 



Smith's Advance. Pure white when fully expanded, showing 

 a creamy center when semi-developed. This is the earliest 

 large white variety known. Buds selected June 10th were 

 cut July 2.5th, 51 in. across. Later buds give larger blooms. 



Unaka. The long sought early October pink Chrysanthemum. 

 Buds selected August 1 to 15 give fully developed blooms 

 October 1st to 15th, of splendid color and fulness. (See cut). 



Chrysolora. This new variety can be briefly described as an 

 early Col. D. Appleton, one of the best yellow sorts, coming in 

 fifteen days earlier; is of larger size, stronger stem, not quite 

 as tall. Best buds August 1st to 15th. {See cut). 



Dick Witterstaetter. Japanese reflexing, an intense shade of 

 red. Excellent for exhibition; best bud August 15 to 25. In 

 flower latter part of October. {See cut). 



Roman Gold. Japanese incurved and darker yellow from Sep- 

 tember buds than Golden Wedding. From August buds a 

 large reflexed flower but not so intense in color. In perfection 

 Nov. 1st. Best bud August 15 to 25. {See cut). 



Thanksgiving Queen. Color creamy white and maturing Nov. 

 20th. Blooms 9 in. in diameter. Best bud September 1 to 10. 

 Price, 50c. each, $5.00 per doz.; set of 7 for $3.00. 



New European Chrysanthemums 



These have been tested and their merit proved. They have 



figured largely in the prize winning groups last Fall. 



W. Woodmason. This has made a wonderful record at the 



exhibitions this year; it has been exhibited 12 inches across and 

 10 inches deep; does not burn and must be classed as a won- 

 derful crimson. Price, 75c. each, $7.50 per dozen. 



Miss Alice Finch. A peculiar shade of purplish crimson, quite 

 scarce in Chrysanthemums. Large flowers, reflexed form, 

 showing the flower to the best advantage. Fine stem and 

 foliage. Crown bud Aug. 20th. 



Gladys Blackburn. Buff colored. A very easy grower and 

 comes splendidly on any bud. Very distinct and pleasing. 



Alice Lemon. A beautiful flower of light, soft pink. Stem and 

 foliage fine. Flowers very large. A splendid variety when caught 

 on the bud around August 15th. A splendid exhibition flower. 

 Howard Gould. Florets are long and grooved and the flower builds up 

 into an enormous globe. Inside of the petal bright golden chestnut, 

 reverse, pure, deep gold. One of the most attractive sorts. 



Mrs. W. A. Read. Intense fiery scarlet crimson. One of the 

 finest in this coloring, like all dark reds it is inclined to burn. 

 A bud around Aug. 15th not so liable to burn as later buds. 



Mrs. David Syme. The finest white ever produced for any 

 purpose. Won the C. S. A. Silver Cup and First Prize in any 

 competition in which it was entered. Absolutely perfect in 

 flower, stem and foliage. For size and form it is unequalled. 



Hon. Mrs. Lopes. Large golden yellow. Taken on a crown 

 bud about August 10th it produces a very handsome flower. 



Keith Luxford. Wine red, very distinct in color; comes good on 

 almost any bud and every grower should have it. 



Mrs. A. R. Peacock. Greatly resembles Beatrice May, its 

 parent. Pure white with very handsome stem and foliage. 



Mrs. H. Stevens. Golden salmon bronze; a magnificent va- 

 riety, very popular. One of the best exhibition varieties. 



R. F. Felton. Deepest possible shade of yellow. This flower 

 never damps a petal under any conditions whatever. While 

 this is hardly large enough for an exhibition flower in some 

 company, it is perhaps the finest colored yellow Chrysanthe- 

 mum we have in cultivation today. 



W. Mease. A bright rosy red; deeper in color than Mary Mason 

 which it otherwise resembles; dwarf, handsome grower. 

 Crown bud from August 15th onward. 



Wells' Late Pink. One of the finest things sent out in its 

 color in many years, flowering from November 10th onward. 

 This variety will be very largely grown when better known. 

 Crown bud after August 25th. 

 Price, except where noted, 50c. each, $5.00 per doz. Set of 



14 for $6.00.
