Pure White, Pericctly Double anti Blooms Profusely from July 
to New Years. 
EVERBLOOMINC WHITE. 
A seedling raised somo years ago by S. F, Duncan, Piqca, Ohio, who 
at once brought It to our attention, and In 1808 we purchased the entire 
stock, having been negotiating for it since 1896. Plants lifted from the 
open ground and sent to us in May began budding and blooming In our 
grounds in July and are now (Nov. 1st) still full of flowers and buds, while 
those in pots bid fair to continue blooming far into the winter. It may be 
used either as a garden or pot plant, and is perfectly hardy in the open 
ground. The flowers are of the Chinese type, pure snow-white, perfectly 
double and produced by the hundreds. No other sort can equal It in pro¬ 
fusion. Plants of dwarf habit, 18 to 24 inches high with perfectly healtliy 
foliage and numerous branches, all of which produce bloom. Mr. Duncan 
says that t,lie plantain his garden have always began blooming by July 4th, 
and are perfectly hardy any winter without protection, A new Chrysan¬ 
themum which may be grown either in the garden or in pots, and which 
will produce such a crop of fine double white flowers for so great a part of 
the year must certainly be regarded as the greatest modern Novelty. 
With us plants bloom beautifully all the summer and fall in open ground, 
and at all times of the year in pots. 15c. each : 2 for 25c.; 5 for 50c. 
NEW EVERBLOOMINC YELLOW. 
A sport from the while Everblooming Chrysanthemum, which origi¬ 
nated with ns last year: exactly like it in every respect except color, 
which is a rich golden yellow. 30c. each.

WRITES MAY i, AS FOLLOWS: 
About four weeks ago I ordered three Ever- 
blooming Chrysanthemums which are simply 
wonderful. Today, May 1st, one of them is in 
full bloom and the other is in bud, and none of 
them over 8 inches in height. The readers of 
The Mayflower would certainly appreciate 
them could they see the plants as they are now. 
I trust that others may have had the same 
pleasure in watching them bloom that I have. 
The Everblooming Chrysanthemum 
I got as a club premium to TnE Mayflower 
this spring has far exceeded my expectations. 
The little plant is already covered with buds 
and looks ns though it would bloom from now 
(June) until Christmas. It is certainly a 
lovely and interesting variety.—M rs. H. M.
