CHRYSANTHEMUMS. 
The popularity of the Queen of the Autumn seems to be on the increase each 
season. They are the most useful fall and early winter blooming plants, as they are per- 
fectly hardy. Few people have any idea of the immense improvements made in the color 
as well as in the forms of this class of plants. No collection of hardy plants is complete 
without them. Below are listed only the very best, and those of special merit. 
Culture. — Don’t expect large perfect flowers in poor soil, from dried up, withered 
plants. Chrysanthemums must be fed copiously with water and have a good mulching of 
rotten cow manure, etc. ; then you can expect to have perfect flowers and plenty of them.
