SEEDLING CHRYSANTHEMUMS. 
These are of American origin. The single and semi¬ 
double varieties are very showy, having the golden-yel¬ 
low disc which is always conspicuous, and at the 
present time much sought for in many flowers. The 
double varieties are mostly of the Japanese type, with 
large, showy flowers.

CHINESE, OR LARGE FLOWERING. 
The Chrysanthemum is the prettiest and most valua¬ 
ble late autumn and early winter flower. In November 
and December there is nothing that will make such a 
cheerful display. They arc almost hardy, but not quite, 
north of New York City. The best way is to get young 
plants in the spring, and sink the pots in the soil up to 
the rim, water quite freely, and keep the plants well cut 
back until about the middle of August. They should 
be repotted at least twice during the summer. Take 
them to the house in October and November, and you 
will have a grand display for two months. There are 
three classes of Chrysanthemums, the Chinese , bearing 
a large, loose, graceful flower; the Pompon, with small 
and perfectly double flowers in great abundance ; and 
the Japajicsc , with ragged, fringe-like flowers, like 
Chinese, only more so. Recently, additions have been 
made to these classes, of which we offer the following; 
Anemone flowered, or quilled, and Hybrid Pompons. 
The flowers of the latter are beautifully and regularly 
scolloped. The prevailing colors are white, the 
different tints of yellow (and the yellow colors arc 
exceedingly fine,) and different shades of red. The reds 
are not brilliant. Fine plants, good assortment of col¬ 
ors, 20 cents each ; $2.00 per dozen.
