New Chrysanthemums 

 for 1913. 



We offer below twelve of the finest new sorts 

 shown at the leading exhibitions last Fall, 

 rhey are all first class, Mrs. Gilbert Drable 

 t)eing the sensation of the year. 

 Annie L. Angus. This variety is similar to 



the old Madam Carnot save that it is 



much stronger in growth and is not affected 



by disease. The flower is purest white and 



can be grown to the largest possible size. 



Crown bud Aug. 10th onward. 

 Jennie. A white Japanese seedling between 



A. T. Miller X Wm. Duckham. It is a 



strong grower having a good stem and 



foliage. Flower is unusually solid which 



makes it a good shipper. The bud should 



not be taken earlier than Aug. 25th. 



{See cut.) Price 60c. each. 

 Mrs. A. M. Henshaw. A beautiful large in- 

 curving flower of purest white. One of the 



finest things of its color sent out in years. 



Crown bud about Aug. 10th. 

 Mrs. Geo. W. Burke. A beautiful and showy 



bronzy yellow, good stem and foliage. A 



splendid variety for the earlier exhibitions. 

 Mrs. Gilbert Drabble. A fine variety with 



stiff stem and good foliage right up to the 



flower, which is pure white of the largest 



size. The incurving petals are arranged in 



a whorl rendering the flower most attractive 



and pleasing. 

 Mrs. H. Turner. An exceptionally deep bui 



striking crimson. Flowers of large size 



from buds taken Aug. 25th or later. 

 Mrs. Peter Duff. The color is old rose shad- 

 ing to cerise giving a charming effect. 



Outer petals reflex; stem and foliage perfect. 



A grand sort for exhibiting in collection 



classes. 

 Mrs. Robert D. Foote. A magnificent ma- 

 hogany crimson every petal of which re- 

 flexes. Sure to be a winner. Does well 



from any bud after Aug. 12th. Height, 4 



ft; stem and foliage good. 

 Ramapo. A seedling of the well-known Col. Appleton, the same 



color and habit, an improvement in form. Price, 50c. each. 

 Sunshine. Large flowers of deepest buttercup yellow. One of 



the finest colored yellow chrysanthemums we have. 

 Susie. A pretty incurving early yellow. In flower October 10th 



from bed taken Aug. 15th. Price, 50c. each. 

 W. Kleinheinz. A remarkable chestnut red. Valuable for 



exhibitions because of its enormous size and fine finish. 



Price $1.00 each (except where noted). Set of 12 for .|9.00. 



New Chrysanthemums of 1912. 



These have been tested and their merit proved. They have 

 figured largely in the prize winning groups last Fall. 

 Alice Lemon. A beautiful flower of light, soft pink. Stem and 



foliage fine. Flowers very large. A splendid exhibition flower. 

 Chrysolora. This new variety can be briefly described as an 



early Col. D. Appleton, one of the best yellow sorts. 

 Dick Witterstaetter. Japanese reflexing, an intense shade of 



red. Excellent for exhibition; best bud August 15 to 25. 

 F. E. Nash. Light pink Japanese. A very handsome heavy 



growing variety, that will easily make its mark. Take bud not 



earlier than August 20th to get the best colored bloom. 

 Hon. Mrs. Lopes. Large golden yellow. Taken on a crown 



bud about August 10th it produces a very handsome flower. 

 Howard Gould. Florets are long and grooved and the flower 



builds up into an enormous globe. Inside of the petal bright 



golden chestnut, reverse, pure, deep gold. 

 Keith Luxford. Wine red, very distinct in color; comes good on 



almost any bud and every grower should have it. 

 Lady Carmichael. Large pure white Japanese. The center 



petals are incurving, while the outer ones are long and reflex, 



showing the flower to the best advantage. 

 Mrs. A. R. Peacock. Greatly resembles Beatrice May, its 



parent. Pure white with very handsome stem and foliage. 



NEW CHRYSANTHEMUMS OF 1912— Continued. 

 Mrs. David Syme. A fine white. Won the C. S. A. Silver Cup 

 and First Prize. Absolutely perfect in flower, stem and foliage. 

 Mrs. G. E. Kelly. Flower a distinct shade of salmon terra cotta, 



a splendid exhibition variety. 



Mrs. W. A. Read. Intense fiery scarlet crimson. One of the 

 finest in this coloring, like all dark reds it is inclined to burn, 

 A bud around August 15th not so liable to burn as later buds. 



R. F. Felton. Deepest possible shade of yellow. This flower 

 never damps a petal under any conditions whatever. 



Roman Gold. Japanese incurved and darker yellow from 

 September buds than Golden Wedding. From August buds 

 a large reflexed flower but not so intense in color. In perfec- 

 tion Nov. 1st. Best bud August 15 to 25. 



Smith's Advance. Pure white when fully expanded, showing 

 a creamy center when semi-developed. This is the earliest 

 large white variety known. Buds selected June 10th were 

 cut July 25th, 53^ in. across. Later buds give larger blooms. 



Tarrytown. A beautiful pink with a slight shade of salmon. 

 The petals are irregularly arranged, very attractive. 



Thanksgiving Queen. Color creamy white and maturing Nov. 

 20th. Blooms 9 in. in diameter. Best bud September 1 to 10. 



Unaka. A long sought early October pink Chrysanthemum of 

 splendid color and fulness. 



W. Mease. A bright rosy red; deeper in color than Mary Ma- 

 son which it otherwise resembles; dwarf, handsome grower. 



W. Turner. Japanese incurved. The flower makes a perfect 

 ball of pure white so large it has created a sensation at several 

 shows. One of the best chrysanthemums ever introduced. 



W. Woodmason. This has made a wonderful record at the 

 exhibitions this year; it has been exhibited 12 inches across 

 and 10 inches deep; does not burn, a wonderful crimson. 



Well's Late Pink. One of the finest things sent out in its color 

 in many years, flowering from November 10th onward. 

 This variety will be very largely grown when better known. 

 Price, 30c. each, $3.00 per doz. Set of 22 for $6.00.
