Two New Doubled Flowered Korean Chrysanthemums: 
Entirely new offered for the first time this year. 
KING MIDAS. In profusion of flowers, there is no double 
hardy chrysanthemum comparable to this lovely newcomer. 
The plants are literally covered with flowers for a very long 
period, commencing In late September and continued 
throughout October. The flowers average four Inches in 
diameter, are fully double, and a charming shade of soft 
yellow with the faintest bronze shadings. A color that 
blends perfectly with almost any other shade and very ef¬ 
fective in itself. Growth; very branchy, attaining an aver¬ 
age height of 2% feet, very hardy. Pot plants 65 cents each 
EMBER This is a remarkable hardy and rugged Chrysanthe¬ 
mum, which apparently withstands all weather conditions. 
In color, a brilliant glowing bronze which stands out con¬ 
spicuously in comparison with any others in this color. It 
is, in fact, a combination of coral and orange shades that 
cannot be described accurately, ever changing with the light, 
but always compelling. The bloom is not too double and 
is of excellent form, 2%” in diameter flowering in mid- 
October, it will be particularly desirable if a mid-season 
variety is wanted. The flowers are quite frost-resistant. 
Height 2% fest. Pot plants 65 cents each. 
NOTE: One plant each of the above varieties $1.25. 
The chrysanthemums 
marked (*) as well as 
others may be successfully 
grown in 5 or 6 inch pots. 
In order to have them low 
and bushy they will need 
frequent pinching up until 
a few weeks before the 
buds appear. Pinch out the 
new growth allowing but 
one set of leaves above the 
recently formed crotch. 
After pinching new growth 
will start when again it 
shall be pinched in the 
same way, this method 
will keep the plants low 
and bushy. Pinching shall 
start when the plants are 
about 8 inches tall.
