EARLY HARDY CHRYSANTHEMUMS 
The majority of Chrysanthemums are hardy south of the Ohio River, and many are hardy 
further north. For outdoor planting, Chrysanthemums must flower before killing frost to be of 
value. These varieties will flower from the last of August until late October.

New Winter Hardy Hybrid Korean Chrysanthemums 
These new creations are especially fine for cold climates where the ordinary chrysanthemum 
winter-kills. They are hardier, most attractive with their lovely new pastel shades, and early flow¬ 
ering. The Korean Hybrids are undoubtedly the greatest advance made in years in chrysanthe¬ 
mums. 2inch pots,, $1.75 per 12; $12.50 per 100. 
APOLLO—Superb autumn color—a sparkling 
combination of bronze, red, and gold suffused 
with glowing salmon. The single flowers, 2 
inches across, are produced in immense sprays. 
Long flowering period. Height, 2% feet. 
CERES—A lovely combination of old-gold, cham¬ 
ois-yellow, and soft coppery bronze. The ma¬ 
ture flower petals appear as if dusted with gold. 
Handsome sturdy plant producing a quantity of 
nicely formed single flowers in branching 
sprays. Height 2M5 feet. 
DAPHNE—Altogether a new shade of pink to 
the chrysanthemum. An exquisite blending of 
Daphne-pink, w r ith an underlying sheen of lilac 
rose, enhanced with prominent golden stamens 
in the center. The single flowers, 3V2 inches 
in diameler, carried in graceful sprays, are es¬ 
pecially frost-resistant. Fine, healthy-growing 
habit. Height, 2% feet. 
DIANA—A new color-note for the garden, Chat- 
enay-rose-pink, mingled with lilac rose and soft 
salmon, the tones of which vary with the de¬ 
gree of light. The triple rays of petals give an 
appearance of fullness that is none the less 
dainty. Height, 2% feet. 
MARS—Deep amaranth-red, changing to wine 
red, overlaid with a velvety sheen. A distinct 
and striking color effect. Height, 2% feet. 
MERCURY (Plant Patent No. 58)—The 3-inch, 
single flowers open bronze-red and change to 
coppery bronze as they mature, a charming ef¬ 
fect in the garden. The graceful sprays when 
cut keep two to three weeks. Height, 2 feet.
