TOTTY’S ’MUMS, MADISON, NEW JERSEY 
Early-Flowering Chrysanthemums 
This type of Chrysanthemum deserves a place in every garden, coming as it does after 
the Summer flowers have begun to wane, and continuing to bloom profusely in most places 
until well into November. 
The cultivation of these ’Mums is simple: Plant them in a rich, well drained piece of 
ground, setting out the plants a foot apart and pinching them once or twice during the 
months of May or June. They will branch out and make beautiful bushes and give the 
cultivator more return for the labor expended than any plant in the garden. There is a 
place for this type of ’Mums in every garden in America, whether one has greenhouses or 
frames or not. Some growers who have grown these as pot plants have had great success 
with the same and we can recommend them highly for that purpose.
