Korean Hybrid CHRYSANTHEMUMS 
(.Introductions of 1935) 
These splendid new hybrids are the result of cross¬ 
ing the ordinary hardy garden Chrysanthemum with 
Chrysanthemum coreanum, the lovely white Daisy 
from Korea. 
They have not only inherited all of the hardiness of 
C. coreanum, which really laughs at winter, but have 
given us shades of coloring undreamed of in the old 
Chrysanthemums. Another virtue is their delightful 
fragrance, most of them carrying a sweet perfume in 
addition to a greatly modified Chrysanthemum scent. 
The plants are tall and bushy with finely cut foli¬ 
age and produce unbelievable quantities of long¬ 
stemmed flowers for cutting. Coming into bloom in 
late September and early October, they make a 
grand show before the first frosts, and as light frosts 
do not harm the unopened buds, they keep on bloom¬ 
ing for a long time. 
Hebe 
HEBE. Lovely, luminous pink, gradually taking on 
lavender-pink tones as the flowers mature. There is a 
hint of a silvery halo around the golden yellow center 
which adds to its distinctiveness. The 3-inch, single 
flowers open in late September. 50 cts. each, $5 per 
Orion 
ORION. Another new color is added to the group by 
this brilliant canary-yellow variety which fairly glitters 
in the autumn sunlight. Having that lustrous quality 
peculiar to the Hybrid Korean type, it immediately 
commands attention among older varieties of similar 
color. The flowers are single, at least 3 inches in diam¬ 
eter, with clean-cut, ray-like petals, and are produced 
freely in erect, branching sprays, not only a grand 
garden decoration but wonderful for cutting. The 
23 ^-foot plants are tidy in habit and bloom over a long 
period from October 5. 50 cts. each, $5 per doz. 
VULCAN. The color of this splendid variety is 
somewhat close to Mars, but is sufficiently distinct to 
be altogether desirable. As the flowers open they are 
glowing carmine-red which shades to garnet-crimson 
and finally to an attractive bronze-crimson as they 
mature. There is a double row of ray-like petals with a 
conspicuous golden center. The fragrance is delightful. 
The plants are very erect and begin blooming October 5. 
50 cts. each, $5 per doz.
