CHRYSANTHEMUMS 
Korean Hybrids 
The following varieties produce single flowers and are, no doubt, very desirable in 
localities where the frost does not occur prior to October 1st. In Northern latitudes, 
they are quite likely to be injured before they are in full bloom. The colorings pre¬ 
sented in this section are, in many instances, quite striking and have been favorably 
received in many localities. 
APOLLO. Reddish bronze, diameter 2 inches, profuse sprays, blooms October 10th. 
DAPHNE. Delicate orange pink, diameter 3^2 inches, height 2 feet, blooms October 
12th. 
DIANA. Delicate shades of rose, lilac and salmon, blooms October 12th. 
LOUISE SCHLING. Salmon red, 3 rows of petals, free flowering, diameter 3 inches. 
MARS. Dark red, velvety sheen, height 21/2 feet, blooms October 15th. 
MERCURY. Bronzy red, 3 inches in diameter, height 2 feet, blooms September 30th. 
Plants from 2 1 /4-inch pots: SO.25 each; S2.00 per ten; $15.00 per hundred. 
Not less than five of a variety at ten; 25 at hundred rate. 
Pompon Section 
The word pompon as applied to the small flowering chrysanthemum was 
given it from its resemblance to a worsted ornament worn in the French sol¬ 
diers' cap. They have been divided into three classes, those which are an inch 
and a half or less are known as the button or baby type, those from one and 
one-half to three inches are known as intermediate type and the large for dis¬ 
budding are from three to four and one-half inches in diameter. The true pom¬ 
pon type is round, not a flat flower. 
The Button or Baby Type 
In addition to being useful for cutting, the varieties 
are dwarf and admirably adapted to pot culture, mak¬ 
ing exceptionally fine plants, either for home decora¬ 
tion or for the outer row of large exhibition groups. 
Potted in June and stopped several times they may be 
had from eight to sixteen inches in height from soil. 
We especially recommend these for this purpose.
