CHRYSANTHEMUM (MARGUERITES) PARIS DAISIES. 
(^Golden and Silver Slars.) 
This class is really one of the most valuable for cut flowers ; with only ordinary care they can be 
had in flower all the year. During the winter they are indispensable, and if afterwards planted out 
they make a splendid bed ; if they have a fault at all, it is because they are too easily propagated. 
I'hey were much admired by all visitors at the Paris Exhibition, and are extensively grown in the 
French parks ns bedding plants. The fact of their never censing flowering makes them household 
dowers everywhere.
