Richmond 
RICHMOND 
This variety won the C. S. A. cup at Philadel¬ 
phia November 8th as the best new seedling of 
the year; it scored 91 before the Chicago Com¬ 
mittee on October 28th. 
The variety has a long season of bloom, as 
noted above; can be cut in good condition on 
October 20, and was still in fine shape and 
traveled to Philadelphia on November 8th. 
The variety is noticeable for its fine form, 
perfect fullness, its silk-like finish, and the per¬ 
fect uniformity on the bench, it is absolutely free 
from culls. Bright golden yellow. 
It was tried out in 1914 by Mr. Thos. Steven¬ 
son of Addlestone, England, was named by him, 
and highly commended; the British rights were 
sold to Messrs. Lowe and Shawyer of Uxbridge, 
England. We feel sure that the variety will 
prove a boon to the American grower. 
Take the bud August 25th. 
$5 per dozen; $35 per 100. 
WHITTIER 
Scored 90 before the Chicago Committee, and 
89 before the Philadelphia Committee November 
18. It is best described as a later Richmond; the 
two sorts are very similar save in foliage; they 
have the same golden yellow color, the same 
round commercial form, and the same satisfac¬ 
tory growth. A splendid late mid-season yel¬ 
low, perfecting its blooms without trouble and 
with a negligible quantity of culls. 
Take the bud September 1st. 
$5 per dozen; $35 per 100. 
MISS ELIZABETH SMITH 
Shown at Philadelphia November 8 and named 
for Mayor Smith’s little daughter.—Round as 
an apple, much the color of a good orange 
(“Roman Gold” tint). Quite full, an exquisite 
mid-season sort of this very popular shade. Has 
beautiful stem and foliage. Easy to do, com¬ 
pact and a good keeper. 
Take the bud September 1st. 
$5 per dozen; $35 per 100. 
BROWNING 
(Very Late, Bright Bronze) 
This variety is a late hronze, a color that is 
in heavy demand to give tone to late yellows 
and whites; it is a warm, cheerful shade of 
reddish orange, with fiat petals opening into a 
smooth rosette of more than average size; stem 
and foliage are distinctly all right, and it is a 
remarkable keeper. Use the late bud-—matures 
in late November. Scored 85 at Philadelphia 
November 18th. A large number of chrysan¬ 
themum growers will sincerely appreciate this 
very late bronze. 
$20 per 100.
