Here are 6 of the earlier large-flowering florists' Mums. These bloom 
from mid to late October and can be grown in the garden except in the 
northernmost states. On frosty nights, protect them with an old sheet 
or similar cover. Or they can be grown in the garden until September, 
then dug with a clump of soil, put into large pots and moved to a sunroom 
to flower for weeks after outdoor blooms are gone. It is safest to winter 
them in a coldframe. 
CULTURE FOR MOST IMPRESSIVE BLOOMS 
See illustrations below. Both Greenhouse and English Mums can be 
grown like other Mums but should be disbudded and staked if extra- 
large individual blooms are desired. The results are well worth while 
and will give you something to make the neighbors' eyes pop out. Two 
or three weeks after planting, cut the tops back to 5 or 6 inches above the 
ground. As new shoots develop, trim out all but six or eight of the 
strongest and pinch out all flowers but one on each shoot. Tie the shoots 
to a stake to hold the heavy flowers upright. 
Gold Lode. Light golden yellow. Mrs. H. E. Kidder. Yellow. 
Hilda Bergen. Dark bronze. October Rose. Lavender. 
Indianola. Light reddish bronze. Silver Sheen. White.
