CHRYSPOPCAN DESCRIPTION 
Twelve years of careful cultivation has been necessary to bring this 
beautiful flower to its present high state of perfection. The word beautiful does 
not describe it. One must see it in bloom to really annreciate its rare beauty. 
Your imagination would need to run riot to gain any idea of the colors and tints. 
The flower resembles in many ways the Chrysanthemum, Poppy, Carnation, 
and some have the shape of Dahlia, so it might be truly said that it is a com¬ 
bination of all these favorites. 
The plant attains a height of from 2 to 4 feet. It has long graceful stems 
and handsome green foliage forming an attractive bush. Each plant yields from 
ten to fifteen large and full flowers. One plant last year yielded 27 perfect 
flowers. 
A chemist would probably analyze the CHRYSPOPCAN to be composed of 
the following strains. Poppy 75% Carnation 10% Chrysanthemum 10% Dahlia 
5% with some plants varying slightly one way or the other. 
Most of the flowers are three to four inches in diameter. The petals are 
of imposing effect. Some are broad, resembling ruffled satin, which others are 
silky, curly and fringed. The formations are of great beauty, and it is impos¬ 
sible to give an accurate detailed description. Each flower has an attractiveness 
all its own. 
Colors produced to date, are Ashes of Rose, Chinese Red, Pink, Fuchsia, 
Red, Lavender, Maroon, Mauve, White, Pink Tipped, White and Scarlet with 
Light Stripes. 
To grow Chryspopcan once means it will always have a choice spot in your 
garden.
