Chrysanthemums 
In our favored climate, Chrysanthemums mature to perfection. There are two general classes: 
Those suitable for growing in the home-garden and the large-flowered, or exhibition type, which 
produces huge blooms of magnificent form but needs careful attention to develop the finest flowers. 
The young plants should be set out from April to June, in a deeply enriched bed where they are 
to flower, or in pots. For the finest blooms, only one stem should be permitted to grow and only 
one bud allowed to come to maturity. This bud is selected about the middle of August and all other 
buds removed. If a greater number of flowers are desired, more branches may be allowed to grow, 
or forced to grow by pinching out the top of the plant. Weekly stimulation with liquid manure, 
begun the latter part of July, will make bigger and better blooms. 
Hardy Garden Chrysanthemums are different. Their flowers are relatively small and are borne 
in huge bunches. The plants require little or no attention when once established in good ground, 
and should be allowed to develop naturally and bloom as they will. They are by far the most effective 
for garden decoration. The large-flowering type is more valuable as a cut-flower. 
Chrysanthemums priced at 15 cts. each are $1.50 per doz.; 20-ct. varieties are $2 per doz.; 
25-ct. varieties are $2.50 per doz.
