Chrysanthemums, Hardy 
This flower, above all others, is a necessary addition to the garden. The inclusion of Hardy Chrysan¬ 
themums in your planting makes it possible to have the garden bright with flowers after the majority of 
hardy herbaceous flowers are past. They are also valuable for cut flowers. 
We have gone over the many varieties and selected those which are most satisfactory for garden culture. 
Including the most popular and best of the older varieties and some of the newer introductions. 
In the newer introductions of Chrysanthemums we have varieties that are as hardy as the older ones, 
but bloom earlier, which gives us a longer flowering period They also consist of colors which were never 
brought out in Chrysanthemums before. These are features of interest in considering the new kinds. It is 
also possible to have varieties that bloom from July until November. 
Aladdin ( Novelty). This new, early flowering 
Chrysanthemum has proved extremely valuable 
under good growing conditions, flowering freely 
from early August on. The color is somewhat 
variable but always an attractive shade of bronze.

tractive, large, full flower of the Decorative type.

Cavalier (Novelty) (1934 introduction). This daz¬ 
zling single variety will prove a most desirable 
addition. The color is a rich vermilion red that
