Single Hardy CHRYSANTHEMUMS 



"SHASTA" and •'MOON-PENNY" DAISIES 



The large-flowering single white hardy Daisy — Chr ysantliemum leztcantliemum maximum — has 



long been considered one of our finest hardy perennials for permanent garden decoration. 



The following new types are great improvements: 



Princess Henry. This "Moon- Penny Daisy" forms a bushy, compact plant 18 inches 



high, producing in abundance, during late summer and fall, magnificent, large white 



flowers, 3 to 4 inches across. They are of splendid substance and, having long stems, 



are highly prized for cutting, lasting in water fully a week. It flowers the first season 



from spring-sown seed, and comes tip every summer in the same beauty for many 



years Pkt . 10c.

 bank — -produces, when well grown, magnificent pure white flowers 4 inches or

height, are hardy, and flower in profusion Pkt. ISc.
