NEW DOUBLE-FLOWERED PYRETHRUMS. 
The Royal Horticultural Society in 1878, awarded a Danksian Medal to our collection of Pyrethrums. 
The decorative value of these New Double-flowered hardy Pyrethrums it is impossible to over-estimate. They 
occupy in the flower border in May and June the same position that the Chrysanthemum holds in September and 
October. Indeed, the name “ Spring-flowering Chrysanthemum,” would not be inappropriate. The flowers are 
produced in great profusion, large, elegantly formed, and ranging in colour from snow-white to intense magenta- 
crimson. The plant is graceful, the foliage elegant, and of a pleasing green, and the plant is uninjured during 
the most severe winters. In herbaceous borders, front of shrubs, and in situations where colour is desired, 
this plant is matchless. In vases and for table bouquets, the cut blossoms are greatly valued, lasting in water 
longer than any other flower. For exhibitions in May and June the flowers are most desirable. If the first 
flower stems are removed as soon as the flower begins to wither, and the plants mulched with rotten manure, to 
encourage vigorous growth, generally the bloom will be as fine in autumn as it was in May and June. 
Culture.— Before planting, trench the ground and work in abundance of rotten manure. 
Our annual exhibitions of these flowers at the Royal Horticultural Gardens and at King Street, attract 
considerable notice.
