The Pompons 
If you grow for a retail trade you can use any or all of the good Pom¬ 
pons to advantage and as you find they appeal to your patrons. For com¬ 
mercial growing we have marked the most profitable varieties with a 
these have good length stems, well-filled sprays and popular colors. 
If you will note cut of Mariana, on page 17, we wish to call your atten¬ 
tion to it as one of the finest of the type called “Large Flowered Pompons”; 
this family at the present consists of Mariana, Lillian Doll), While Doty, Con¬ 
nie Dick, lllona, Peace, Helen Newberry, and slightly differing in form of 
(lower, Frank Wilcox. 
Beside being beautiful in sprays, these sorts, grown one bloom to a stem, 
5 or (5 stems to the plant, are as handsome as anything in the whole ’mum 
family, something that the public has taken lo with eagerness.

Acto—Has dahlia-like petals, bright rose, lighter 
reverse. 
Baby—In a class quite by itself; a fine grower with 
dainty foliage and stiff stems. Solid little flowers with 
curiously folded petals; like plump golden buttons. 
Very late. 
Connie Dick—The novelty called the Yellow Doty 
(see description in full, page 16 ) is one of the finest 
offerings of the year in pompons. 
* Celco—One of the brightest yellows in the family. 
* Doris—Reddish bronze, brilliant color, very much 
liked; type of Rufus; makes a fine bunch for cutting.
