SINGLE HARDY CHRYSANTHEMUMS 
l, Shasta" and “ Moon-Penny" Daisies 
The large-flowering single white hardy Daisy — Chrysanthemum leucanthemum maxi¬ 
mum — has long been considered one of our finest hardy perennials for permanent gar¬ 
den decoration. The following new types are great improvements. 
Princess Henry. This “Moon-Penny Daisy” forms a bushy, compact plant 18 inches 
high, producing in abundance, during late summer and fall, magnificent, large white 
flowers, 3 to 4 inches across. They are of splendid substance and, having long stems, 
are highly prized for cutting, lasting in water fully a week. It flowers the first season 
from spring-sown seed, and comes up every summer in the same beauty for many 
years.. ... .... Pkt. 10c. 
Shasta Daisy. This great white California Daisy—a creation of Mr. Luther Burbank 
— produces, when well grown, magnificent pure white flowers 4 inches or more across, on 
stems 1M to 2 feet in length. The plants, 2 to 2^2 feet in height, are hardy, and flower 
in profusion. . ; . . Pkt. 15c. 
Little Gem. A beautiful new dwarf variety, only 15 to 18 inches high, of even, bushy 
growth; blooming very early, and very freely — making a splendid effect — large, pure white 
flowers on long stems. Splendid for herbaceous borders and for cut flowers. Pkt. 25c. 
COSMIDIUM 
Orange Crown. Very handsome new annual, forming elegant, many-branched bushes 1to 2 feet 
in height. The flower heads, 4 to 5 inches in circumference, are carried on long stems well above the 
foliage. The flow'ers are golden-yellow with a broad circle of a rich orange around the disk, a pleasing 
combination. As the plants produce a succession of bloom throughout the summer and the flowers last 
_ _ __ , . well in water, this will be found very useful for cutting
