NEW EARLY KOREAN HYBRID CHRYSANTHEMUMS 
The following Korean Hybrids were selected from thousands of 
seedlings, not alone for the novel color tones in many of them and 
their variations in form, but most particularly because of their 
flowering ten days to two weeks earlier than the Korean crosses 
heretofore offered. 
The varieties here offered will begin flowering in early September 
and continue well through October.

over 2'/ 2 in. in diameter, of a clear glistening white with yellow 
disc, are freely produced, fully covering the plant.
