Novelty Chrysanthemums 



Indian Summer. This variety is a 

 sport from Golden Chadwick, originat- 

 ing with us in 1911. We have grown 

 the variety in quantity to make certain 

 that the odd cok)r is in demand, and 

 ha\e satisfied ourselves that there is a 

 demand for Indian Summer from those 

 who know how to use flowers. The 

 wonderfully beautiful effects which can 

 be had by the proper setting will be 

 recognized by those who understand 

 floral art, and it is to these men that a 

 novelty of this sort will appeal. As it is 

 a sport of Chadwick, the habit and 

 growth being identical, there is no ne- 

 cessity for enlarging upon the success of 

 the variety from the growing standpoint. 

 In color the groundwork is yellow, but 

 into this is blended the terra cotta and 

 salmon shades, with a tinge of bronze 

 that gives to it a distinctiveness that 

 insures popularity. The color of Au- 

 tumn foliage during Indian Summer in a 

 measure describes the coloring, and it 

 has been named in honor of the season of 

 the year which brings Chrysanthemums 

 to their glory. 

 Plants from 234-inch pots: 75c. each,

Indian Summer 



Greystone. This new variety is a seedling from 

 Brutus and Soleil d'Octobre, and is a most beautiful 

 golden bronze in color, the specimen plant shown at 

 the Museum of Natural History at New York being 

 one of the original plants. This specimen carried 

 one thousand blooms of large size, and in the opinion 

 of experts was one of the finest specimens ever 

 L\lii1)ited. Greystone is a seedling raised by W. H. 

 W aite, and the variety has proven such a success, not 

 only as a specimen plant, but grown as commercial 

 flowers are grown, that we have taken this seedling 

 to disseminate in the belief that it will be found an 

 excellent commercial variety, and that it will be in 

 demand owing to its beautiful coloring. We believe 

 it will be a credit to Mr. Waite and to " Greystone," 

 one of our finest American |)rivate estates. 



Plants from 214-inch ix)ts: 75c. each, $7.50 per
