HYBRID KOREAN CHRYSANTHEMUMS 
Saturn Venus Aphrodite 
INTRODUCTIONS OF 1936 
Aphrodite 
Imagine a compact, billowy mound 3 feet or more 
across, tinted with ivory and delicate pink, so com¬ 
pletely covered with flowers that only blossoms are 
visible, and you have a picture of this splendid 
variety. The color is a soft tint of pink in the open¬ 
ing flowers, changing to ivory-white with the slight¬ 
est mingling of delicate pink in the fully developed 
gerbera-like blossoms. Individual flowers are 3 to 
33 ^ inches across. A single plant will make a gor¬ 
geous background in the average rockery. It is 
equally effective grouped in the garden or massed 
on a slope or bank. Height, 2 feet; spread, 3 feet. 
October 5. 
Saturn 
Brilliant sparkling orange and bronze, enhanced 
by a soft orange ring or halo surrounding the golden 
yellow center. A gorgeous autumn color-effect. It 
IS tremendously free and effective, due to its splen¬ 
didly robust, branching habit. Flowers are of excel¬ 
lent texture, almost 3 inches across, and are pro¬ 
duced in large, graceful sprays. Delightfully fra¬ 
grant. Height, 23 ^ to 3 feet. In flower October 5. 
Venus 
A new and attractive shade (Rhodanthe pink, 
Ridgway), the general effect of which is lilac-pink 
with rose-lavender shading. The flower is single, 
23 ^ inches across, with three or four rows of petals. 
It is remarkably free, with slender, wiry branches 
that carry a multitude of blossoms on generous 
sprays. Commencing to flower in late September, it 
remains effective for a long period, and will appeal 
to those who like lavender and lilac tones in the 
garden. Delightfully fragrant. Height, 23^ feet. 
October 1. 
INTRODUCTIONS OF 1935 
Orion 
First Class Certificate, Massachusetts Horticul¬ 
tural Society, 1935. 
Another new color, brilliant canary-yellow 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, 
3 inches across. Excellent for cutting and a grand 
garden color. October 5. Height, 23^^ feet. 
Vulcan 
Glowing carmine-red which shades to garnet- 
crimson and finally to an attractive bronze-crimson 
as the flower matures. It has a double row of 
ray-like petals with a con.spicuous golden center 
and is delightfully fragrant. October 5. Height, 
23 ^ feet. 
Hebe 
A profusion of delightfully fragrant, silvery pink 
blossoms completely covers the plant from late 
September on. Its remarkable freedom and unusual 
hardiness are invaluable traits, particularly in 
northern sections where Chrysanthemums are 
difficult. Enthusiastic reports from Minnesota and 
Maine—even from far China—more than sub¬ 
stantiate all our claims for this fine early variety. 
Growing to a height of 23^ feet, it presents a lively 
color mass in the fall garden.
