CHRYSANTHEMUMS,

^EVEK were Chrysanthcmnips more generally grown, and to such perfection, as now. 
O-'-ijlW urc siiringing up in nearly every town ; and to meet the demand for jilants and 
cuttings, we have devoted quite three quarters of an acre to their (iroduction, and, in fact, 
allotted a separate portion of our Nursery to their special culture; and, as near as they 
can be counted, not less than 8,000 ]>lants are in 4-inch pots for immediate sale. There can be no 
doubt about their being correctly named — we have five houses (100 feet each) specially for them to 
develop their blooms. At the projicr seatson we have a display consisting of all the best and most 
distinct kinds, which forms unquestionably the finest and most complete collection of this family 
ever brought together, and will, of course, include, like all our collections of florist flowers, the 
original species to the latest new and improved kinds. Eor comparison, throughout November, this 
will be found an opportunity such as has never before been offered to lovers of this genus. The 
following brief cultural directions, if carried out, will enable anyone to grow plants similar to the 
cngravitigs.
