The collection of Chrysanthemums makes a fine display 
A bouquet made 
up of Pentstemon 
“Huntington’s Shell 
Pink,” Delphinium 
Wrexham Hybrids, 
and G y p s o p hil a 
“Bristol Fairy” is 
most attractive. 
These three dis¬ 
tinctive and unusual 
hardy herbaceous 
plants bloom at the 
same time and blend 
perfectly either in a 
bouquet or the bord¬ 
er. The clear pink, 
the delicate blue, 
and the airy, lace¬ 
like white are ideal 
companions. 
CHRYSANTHEMUMS 
This list of “mums” is selected from those vari¬ 
eties which we consider to be the best of their type 
and perfectly hardy. The hardiness of a chrysan¬ 
themum is of extreme importance, and these mums, 
coupled with their richness of color, are hardy. 
We would recommend that you divide Chrysan¬ 
themums every other year at least. A small divi¬ 
sion, planted in the Spring, will flower in the au¬ 
tumn. 
These are all field grown clumps. Each 20c, per 
10 $1-20, per 25 $2.50.
