DREER'S CHOICE GARDEN CHRYSANTHEMUMS 



These are universally popular for outdoor bedding, and considering their many good qualities, there is no cause for surprise to see 

 them cultivated so extensively. They produce a lavish profusion of blooms, giving color, life and beauty to the garden just at a time 

 when other plants have been destroyed by frost and are looking their worst. Frost does not materially affect the flowering, and it fre- 

 quently happens that an armful of flowers can be cut late in November. They are reasonably hardy if planted in a well-drained position, 

 with a covering of leaves or loose litter during the winter, or may be carried over with perfect safety in a cold frame. 



The various collections offered below have been selected from hundreds of varieties that we have tested, and represent the very 

 best in their respective class and color.
