1936 Novelty Korean Hybrids 
A planting of these gorgeous flowers will add new color, new 
interest, and new delight to your garden. By all means order 
immediately and be assured of having a most charming autumn 
flower display. 
APHRODITE. (5-32 C.K.) The 2-foot plants, with a spread of 
3 feet, form a compact, billowy mound completely covered with 3- to 
3 b^-inch single flowers of a wonderful shade of clean, soft pink which 
lightens somewhat as the flowers age. Either as a single plant or in 
a hedge-like row they are very effective, wonderfully striking when 
planted in masses on a bank. Blooms October 5. 60 cts. each; 
$5.50 per doz. 
SATURN. (14-33 C.K.) An unusually striking single flower of spark¬ 
ling orange and bronze, enhanced by a soft orange ring surrounding 
the yellow center cushion—a glorious autumn-color combination. 
It has a delightful fragrance. Plants are about 2 34 feet tall, bushy, 
and produce the flowers in large, graceful sprays. Blooms October 5. 
60 cts. each; $5.50 per doz. 
VENUS. (13-34 C.K.) A new Chrysanthemum color—Rhodanthe 
pink, of a lovely, deep, warm shade. The flowers are of the single 
type but have three or four rows of petals, and are 2 34 inches or 
more in diameter. Its delightfully fragrant flowers commence to 
open in early October and last for an unusually long period. Height 
2 34 feet. 60 cts. each; $5.50 per doz. 
Another New Korean Type 
We ofTer in the two varieties below the first doubles in Hybrid 
Koreans, having the extra hardiness of the Korean Hybrids with 
the lovely double flowers of the older type of Chrysanthemums. These 
are a great advance over all types now in gardens. 
INDIAN SUMMER. (40-33 C.K.) This finely formed, decorative- 
type flower is at least 3 inches in diameter and produced in splendid 
clusters. The color is vivid, glowing orange, with luminous reflexes 
which immediately capture attention. The plants are 2J^ to 3 feet 
tall, and bloom with a candelabra-like effect which is unique. The 
flowers are more frost-resistant than any Chrysanthemum we have 
seen. Blooms October 15. 80 cts. each; $8 per doz. 
ROMANY. (35-33 C.K.) This is one of those tantalizing flowers 
which it is almost impossible to describe. It is so alive that the 
shades vary in different lights, being especially beautiful under 
artificial light. The color is in effect a soft glowing red with golden 
reflexes on the incurved center petals. It is fully double, decorative, 
3 inches in diameter, blooming on wiry, branching stems and makes 
a perfect cut-flower, lasting some three weeks in water. Plants are 
2}4 feet in height. Blooms October 5. 80 cts. each; $8 per doz.
