Ne\ir Pink Chrysantlieinuin. 



Dr. Englehart. This is claimed to be the ideal pink Chrys- 

 anthemum, a color in which we always have been weak. It 

 is claimed that this variety is destined to become as popular 

 as Col. D. Appleton has been in yellow and Timothy Eaton 

 in white. The flowers exhibited at the various shows the 

 past Fall were certainly very beautiful, and, at the show of 

 the American Chrysanthemum Society of New York, it was 

 awarded the first prize for the best six flowers of a new pink 

 variety. Delivery in March 50 cents each ; ^5.00 per dozen.
