Judith Anderson 
Judith Anderson 
An outstanding new Pompon. Introduced by us last year, this 
variety was the sensation in our Pompon section during the disijlay 
season. Seldom exceeding a height of 1feet, it makes a spread of from 
2 to feet. The plants are covered from the ground up with nicely- 
formed, well-rounded, button-type flowers IJ^ inches across, clear butter- 
yellow in color. Praised highly by those who have grown it. Judith 
Anderson easily excels any Pompon we know for garden effect where 
its dwarf habit makes it desirable for massing or edging. Remarkably 
fine also when grown as a pot-plant. 3-in. pot-plants, 50 cts. each, 
$5 per doz. 
Innocence. For rockery or bordering. See page 5. 
Country Girl (Korean Type) 
Attaining a height of from 4 to 5 feet, with an equal 
spread, this lovely variety is altogether too lusty for 
the average garden. Used as a background subject, or 
as a hedge-row in the rear of the garden where blooms 
can be cut by the armful, it will prove a serviceable 
acquisition. The flower is single, inches or more 
across, and a lovely shade of glistening pink with soft 
lilac tones. Occasionally a plant will produce blind 
wood the first season, but when established it flowers 
consistently, and is a veritable “Iron-clad.” October 15. 
Strong 3-in. pot-plants, 35 cts. each, 90 cts. for 3, 
13.50 per doz. 
Astrid (Arcticum Type) 
The first authentic hybrid offered of the hardy 
Arcticum species. Like its prototype, it is of dense 
growing habit, very free flowering and extremely 
hardy. The single blossoms are soft pink with apricot 
tints harmonizing nicely with the prominent yellow 
centers. A fine dependable Chr\santhemum. Strong 
3-in. pot-plants, 50 cts. each, $1.25 for 3. 
Mercury 
Similar to Louise Schling in color—it has, however, 
developed a tendency to produce poor foliage, due to 
nematode infection to which it is susceptible where 
this pest is prevalent. Where it is free from this, it is 
a lovely, worth-while variety. Louise Schling is recom¬ 
mended as a substitute. Strong 3-in. pot-plants, 35 cts. 
each, 90 cts. for 3, $3.50 per doz.
