NEW WINTER HARDY 
Hybrid Korean Chrysanthemums 
These new creations are especially fine for cold 
climates where the ordinary Chrysanthemum winter' 
kills. As stated before, they are hardier, most attrac' 
tive in color, very early, blooming early October, 
easier to grow, and more profuse in blooming. 
The lovely new pastel shades, which simply defy 
accurate description or true color reproduction, sug' 
gest the Gerbera in their daintiness. Cut with short 
stems, they make the most charming table decorations, 
yet are capable of striking decorative uses if the en- 
tire branching sprays are used. They are compelling 
for color effect in the garden.
