CHRYSANTHEMUMS. 



In no class of plants lias there been more improve- 

 ment in the last few years than in this. Those who 

 only know the old-fashioned flowering " Artemisia" 

 of the garden, would scarcely recognize the fashion- 

 able Chrysanthemum of to-day as belonging to the 

 same family. In this large flowering class we now 

 have many varieties, with ilowers as large as those of 

 the Dahlia, while in the Japanese section the fantastic 

 shapes that some varieties assume are truly wonderful. 



The finest exhibition of Chrysanthemums ever seen 

 in this country, was shown in New York in Novem 

 her of 1883. After the Exhibition, the specimens 

 were sold at auction at prices ranging from $5 to $18 

 each. 



The exhibition has given an impetus to the grow- 

 ing of Chrysanthemums all over the country, and this 

 fall they will be the most fashionable flower of the 

 season. We offer :

CROTON AUKEA MACULATA. 



CROTON AUREA MACULATA 



("Zebra Croton.") 



The cut gives a fair idea of this splendid variety. 

 Nearly all crotons fail to show their fine colors until 

 grown to a large size, but this variety is beautiful in 

 all its stages, from a 3 inch pot to a towering speci- 

 men. The light parts in the cut show the golden 

 yellow, and the dark the green.
