Blooms,” to prevent any hitherto implied imposition, and 
get orders “ booked ” for November delivery. Within the entire 
range of hardy perennials there is nothing finer. Its colour and 
floret formation is in appearance like an immense bloom of 
Madame Domage Chrysanthemum, or the very finest form of 
Orange Quilled African Marigold. Quite distinct. Plants at 
fall. Is. 6i. each, with 3 d. extia if sent by post.
