STANDARD VARIETIES 
The majority of chrysanthemums are hardy south of the Ohio River and 
many are hardy in the northern states, as far as the plant is concerned, but they 
must flower before early frost to be of service. The varieties offered below gen¬ 
erally flower from the last of August to the middle of October. 
As earliness is very important to those in the northern states, we herewith 
append the dates when the color is prominent on most of the varieties.
