Ak-Sar-Ben. New and very unusual. The first in 

 a new series of early-blooming quill or Spider 

 Mums for the garden. The fully double, stiff- 

 textured, quilled flowers are 3J^ to 5 inches 

 across and are borne singly or in loose clusters on 

 strong, stiff stems. Suntan shade overlaid with 

 rose. Strong, 30-inch plants bear their blooms 

 from late August until killing freezes. A truly 

 hardy, early-blooming Rayonante type Mum 

 has been much desired, and thus this variety, 

 the first in that category, is sure to be popular.
