Novelty Hardy Chrysanthemums 
The trade in general is well informed on the wonderful work that has been done the last few years on Hardy Chrysan¬ 
themums. Many new varieties are introduced annually. 
It is very important for growers like us to keep up with new 1 introductions so that we will not miss out on any that may 
be worthwhile. It is therefore necessary that we purchase small quantities of all new varieties. For many of these we pay ex- 
horbitant prices and later discover that they have to be discarded. 
All of these Chrysanthemums are planted out in our trials and in regular flowering season there are a good many hun¬ 
dreds of varieties in blossom. These are all critically judged and only what in our opinion are the very best are selected for 
future propagation. We do this work, having in mind to save our customers money which otherwise they would spend for 
experimental purposes. 
In accordance with this policy we offer here the very finest varieties in existence today. When you make a selection from 
this list you will not be experimenting. We are sure that when you actually grow the varieties purchased from us you will ap¬ 
preciate the work that we have done in our selections. Due to our excellent equipment for propagating, we are able to offer 
these real worthwhile Novelty Chrysanthemums to you in rooted cuttings and 2" pot plants at reasonable prices. All these are 
propagated from field grown plants. We believe they are far superior to those propagated from greenhouse Iplants. It will be 
well for you to keep this in mind when you are buying your new varieties 'of Hardy Chrysanthemums. 
CHRYSANTHEMUM ALADDIN 
The Perpetual Flowering Mum. The flowers are borne 
on erect stems, the terminal buds giving the first bloom. As 
the plant develops, the lateral branches make a surprising 
growth, throwing the lateral and sub-lateral flowers well 
above the first terminal blooms. The first blooms appear 
late in July and early August, the color at first being an 
exquisite warm coppery bronze, with an overlay of orange- 
apricot shade which deepens in early autumn. 
Rooted Cuttings $5.00 per 100, $40.00 per 1000 
2" Pot Plants $8.00 per 100, $70.00 per 1000 
CHRYSANTHEMUM PINK CUSHION 
This is one of the most admired Chrysanthemums. It 
is a solid compact grower, flowering from first of October 
until frost. The flowers come continuously throughout the 
entire fall. The whole clump, while in flower is completely 
covered. The color is a beautiful shade of pink. Due to its 
color and its compact growth we believe at this time there 
is no other Chrysanthemum as effective in rock garden, 
landscape or border planting.

inches with a solitary pink flower with dark center. Ad¬ 
mirably adapted for the rock garden.
