NEW KOREAN HYBRID CHRYSANTHEMUMS 
Introductions of 1936 
A new race of hybrids which has been developed from C. coreanum. A distinct 
type that adds new color, new interest, new hardiness, and promises to be especially 
valuable in sections where winter-killing has been a serious objection. They will 
prove valuable for cut-flowers as well as for color-effect in the garden. 
Aphrodite. The color is a soft tint of pink in the opening flowers, 10 100 
changing to ivory-white, with the slightest mingling of delicate 
pink in the fully developed, single, gerbera-like blossoms. 
Individual flowers are 3 to 3^ inches across. A single plant will 
make a gorgeous background in the average rockery. Height, 
2 ft.; spread, 3 ft. October 5.S3 50 S30 00 
Saturn. Brilliant, sparkling orange and bronze, enhanced by a 
soft orange ring or halo surrounding the golden yellow center—

late September, it remains effective for a long period, and will 
appeal to those who like lavender and lilac tones. 2 x /i ft.

captures attention. Large flowers, 3 inches across, many

center of the flower. Blooms are full double, perfect as a cut- 
flower, remaining in good condition at least three weeks with 
ordinary care. 2^2 ft- October 5.
