TinOTHT EATON 



The Greatest White. 



©FFERED by us last Fall for the first time. The original 

 plants cost :51,000. Compared with varieties that have 

 hitherto been considered the best of the color, Timothy 

 Eaton stands out head and shoulders above them. This 

 variety has been the sensation in Chrysanthemums in all the 

 great 'exhibitions throuarhout the country, and from the 

 Atlantic to the Pacific it is the most famous of all Chrysanthe- 

 mums, and in size the greatest of its color. We have had 

 thousands of flowers of this variety 10 inches in diameter and 

 almost as deep. (See illustration above.) The flowers are 

 uniformly large under ordinary cultivation, and are full, 



deep and double, but not crowded, while the color is purest 

 white. The stems are stout, erect and stiff. One of the 

 easiest varieties to grow, and any amateur can have it to 

 perfection. In the open ground blooms quite early in the 

 season, following closely after Glory of the Pacific. Has won 

 dozens of prizes, certificates, gold medals, silver cup>s, in fact, 

 every honor has been showered upon it— strictly on its merits. 

 Do not fail to secure it. Our stock being grown from the 

 original plants may be depended upon to be absolutely genu- 

 ine. We caittion our customers against spurious stock. 20 cts, 

 each; 3 for 50 cts., 7 for $1.00. 



IMDIflN nA\b 



A Crimson Queen. 



^TOTALLY unlike any other Chrysanthemum. Absolutely 

 w distinct in color— a grand, deep, solid crimson. Flowers 

 beautifully made, large and full, broad incurving petals. 

 Forms a striking contrast with other Chrysanthemums, and 

 as the only one of its color must prove to be one of the most 



valuable varieties of modern introduction, and indispensable 

 in every collection. Blooms early in the season, producing 

 its grand flowers on very stiff stems in the greatest profusion. 

 20 cts. each; 3 for 50 cts.; 7 for $1.00,

 Eaton, with a depth as great as the breadth, large, 

 heavy, reflexing petals and grand substance, perfect 

 form and inagnificent color,— bright yellow, we have the 

 greatest of all yellow Chrysanthemums." Another point in its 1 

 favor is the faultless stem and foliage. The stem is strong, |

carrying the flower erect, while the foliage is of the best 

 texture, not too large, and growing fully up to the flower. 

 Blooms at mid-season, and in the open ground is especially 

 fine. We know of no variety to compare with it, and it is 

 indeed the champion of champions, and the greatest of all 

 yellows. 20 cts. each; 3 for 50 cts.; 7 for $1.00.
