which, though grown so near London, is healthier than country grown stock, and up to the present time has 

 NOT been attacked with the Rust. Thousands who have visited my Nursery and Growers of my Stock can 

 testify to the truth of this. 



WORTH POUNDS. 



My CHRYSANTHEMUM CATALOGUE is not a catalogue in the ordinary sense, as it contains much 

 valuable information, including a Special Article on Stopping and Timing nearly 6oo varieties ; this will be 

 invaluable 



TO 



EVERY 



EXHIBITOR, 



and will be sent post free for one stamp. 



A New Edition of my CHRYSANTHEMUM GUIDE is in course of preparation, which will reach one 

 hundred thousand with this issue ; it will contain, as before, articles from the pens of the most successful 

 Cultivators of the Chrysanthemum. This will be ready early in the New Year, and will be sent post free for 

 seven stamps, or is. 2d. bound in cloth. 



I have much pleasure in announcing that I have arranged with Mr. W. Seward (the well-known raiser ol 

 many of our best Chrysanthemums) to introduce his magnificent varieties for '99. These are the best he ha5 

 ever raised, and include what has long been wanted— some Grand Novelties in several shades of red, from 

 terra cotta to the richest crimson. Mrs. W. Seward (a crimson scarlet), Chenon de Leche, II. J. Jones (the 

 grandest and richest real crimson), and Mrs. Henry J. Jones (the giant incurved) are part of the set. 



In addition my own Novelties include R. Hooper Pearson (the grandest yellow Jap), Lili Boutroy (large 

 petalled white), Lord Aldenham (yellow sport from Edwin Molyneux), IL Rivers Langton (yellow sport from 

 Mrs. W. IL Lees), Madame Leon Feyerick (yellow sport from Eva Knowles), Mr. J. T. Simpson (sport from 

 Julia Scaramanza), Eastman Bell (crimson sport from President Borel), Mr. A. Barrett (sport from Mrs. C. II. 

 Payne), Mr. A. H. Hall (a giant bronze seedling from Edith Tabor), Mr. A. G. Miller (a giant silvery pink), 

 and May Manser (the new large early flowering white Jap), and several others. The full list will be ready 

 shortly, and will be sent post free on application.
