The Set of Koreans That Made Good 
The six varieties we offer here received nation-wide attention last year. We believe they were advertised more than 
any other type of Chrysanthemum recently introduced. As a result of this extensive advertising there was an excellent dis¬ 
tribution which means this coming spring your trade will demand these Chrysanthemums in a large way. 
They have now been tried out practically from coast to coast. As far as we are able to learn they were very much ad¬ 
mired and are being praised for their distinctive beauties. Many purchased only small quantities for trial purposes. Now 
the people in the trade are expressing their desire to handle these on a large scale, convinced that this spring these Chrysan¬ 
themums will provide good profits, due of course to the expected lively demand. The prices are now down where this set can 
really be sold almost in line with other types of Hardy Chrysanthemums.

Hardy Chrysanthemums - Standard Varieties 
Field Grown Clumpsi Only 
Year by year we are continuing to plant out practically everything new that comes along in the field of Hardy Chry¬ 
santhemums. As time goes on many of the outstanding new Mums become standard with us and automatically they are added 
to our regular varieties. While we are continuously adding to our standard list, we are maintaining most of those that wei 
have grown for many years which have proved to be worthy in our climate. The reason for this is that those varieties are 
still popular and are very much in demand.
