CHRYSANTHEMUMS 
Oak Leaf 
GLADYS PEARSON—(Introduced by us, 1925). A very appropiate shade 
for Thanksgiving use. Blooms 8 inches in diameter mature November 20 to 25. 
The upper surface of the petals is apricot and the reverse buff which illuminates 
under artificial light to bright orange. Strong grower. Height, five feet from 
June planting. Date of bud September 30. 
GOLDEN MISTLETOE—A light yellow sport from Mistletoe. Owing to its 
lateness this variety is valuable to the commercial grower. Height, four feet. 
Date of bud September 30. 
MISS HELEN FRICK—(Introduced by us, 1904). Although we introduced 
this variety many years ago it is still the most pleasing shade and best pink to 
mature about November 20. Is of rather dwarf growth and should be planted 
early in June to secure stems four feet long. Select bud September 10 to 15. 
MOHAWK CHIEF — (Introduced by us, 1929). The latest crimson to date, 
its reflexed form showing this color to best advantage. Matures the end of 
November into December. Buds selected Octoher 1 and later for best color. 
Diameter 7 y 2 inches. Height, three feet. 
MRS. R. M. CALKINS' — (Introduced by us, 1926). A very bright yellow as 
intense as the variety Marigold; an improved golden Chadwick is more globular 
in form with a stronger and harder stem. Produces bloom 7 inches in diameter. 
Select bud September 20. Height, four feet. Matures November 25 to 30. 
MRS. NELLIE T. ROSS—(Introduced by us, 1925). Light yellow, possibly 
a shade lighter than Major Bonnaffon. Its late flowering period, November 30 
into December, greatly enhnaces its value. A wonderful keeper; produces blooms 
7 inches in diameter. Do not reserve bud until early October. Height, four and 
one-half feet. 
OAK LEAF — A sport from the popular variety Gladys Pearson; darker in 
color as the name implies. Culture, bud and date of flowering are the same as 
the original. 
PINK MISTLETOE—A pink sport from Mistletoe. Best of buds September 
30 to October 15. May be had for Christmas and after by planting the end of 
July or first of August. 
THANKSGIVING PINK — Owing to its lateness this variety is very popular. 
The color is a very dark pink of a rather peculiar shade but is still extensively 
grown by those who desire late flowers. Produces blooms 7 inches in diameter. 
Select bud September 15. Height, four feet. Matures Thanksgiving and later. 
WHITE MISTLETOE IMPROVED—(Introduced by us, 1930). This pure 
white Mistletoe is a sport. It has been propagated from a single plant the past 
three years and has been constant and true to color. The objectionable pink of 
the original Mistletoe has been eliminated. This new variety will be valuable to 
all seeking late flowering sorts. 
YELLOW GLADYS PEARSON — There were four yellow sports from Gladys 
Pearson offered last spring and we believe we have selected the best one of the 
four. It is identical in every way with the original except its color. 
Plants from 2 l / 4 inch pots: $0.15 each, $1.00 per ten, $7.50 per hundred. 
Not less than 5 of a variety at ten; 25 at hundred rate.
