Mrs. Alpheus Hardy. No new plant of 
any kind was ever given so much attention or 
admiration as this one. The flower is pure 
white, making a perfect ball, covered with long, 
fine hairs, which glisten in the light and give it 
a soft appearance. A well-grown specimen is 
an object of great beauty, and at once attracts 
notice.

outer 5 or 6 rows are creamy white and of 
dahlia-like form ; the center is bright yellow,

Philadelphia. This is undoubtedly the 
greatest acquisition in Chrysanthemums for 
many years ; it is an entirely new type in color- 
ing and in form of petal or floret, and in the 
general contour of the flower, though it is very 
nearly globular as a whole. The formation of 
its florets and their disposition make it grace- 
fully globular in form ; its color is white, illumi- 
nated with lemon yellow, giving it light and 
life never before seen in a Chrysanthemum. 
Win. Falconer. The Rosy-blush Ostrich Plume 
variety. A grand flower; well feathered.
