GARDEN CHRYSANTHEMUMS 
SEPTEMBER FLOWERING VARIETIES 
In this group we find with a few exceptions all new varieties. Through 
careful breeding and selecting, the time of flowering of these Chrysan¬ 
themums has been advanced by fully a month over the older varieties. 
They are not only in advance in blooming time but also far ahead in 
clearness and loveliness of color and are far more attractive in general. 
Masses of bloom may be had from early September and throughout 
October. 
Aladdin Each $0.30, Doz. $3.00 
(The Perpetual Flowering Chrysanthemum). As the plant develops the 
lateral branches make a surprising growth, throwing the lateral and 
sub-lateral flowers well above the first terminal blooms, thus giving a 
continuous succession of bloom. The first blooms appear late in July 
and early August, the color at first being an exquisite warm coppery 
bronze, with an overlay of orange-apricot shade which deepens in early 
autumn. 
Amber Star Each $0.30, Doz. $3.00 
A most attractive buff, suffused scarlet. Of shaggy form and brilliant 
coloring. 
Amelia (Pink Cushion) Each $0.35, Doz. $3.50 
The dwarfest of 'mums, not over 10 inches high. Completely covered 
with pink blossoms so that the plant resembles an Azalea. Also called 
Pink Cushion. 
Argenteuillais Each $0.25, Doz. $2.50 
Well shaped scarlet bronzy flowers tipped with gold are produced in 
great quantities. Exceptionally hardy variety of medium height.

As early as Glory of Seven Oaks and of practically the same habit, but 
the flowers are a clean, clear pale yellow.

A dazzling rich vermilion-red with medium sized single flowers. Early 
and showy and very brilliant. Beautiful in the garden. 
Cosmos Each $0.40, Doz. $4.00 
A unique dark purplish carmine. No other 'mum has a coloring like this. 
Very brilliant. 
Early Bronze Each $0.30, Doz. $3.00 
(Edmund F. Black). A remarkably early flowering, early pompon in full 
glory in September. Splendid for garden or cutting. Usually free 
blooming. 
Enchantress Each $0.30, Doz. $3.00 
Semi-double rose of delicate, yet strong, clear coloring. Fine in garden 
and for cutting.
