MIS. S' F. II. HERBERT, Alexandria, Va. 
n c e h w rvs m a a n r ^ggjsr MRS. F. SANDER 
A new form of the popular “Marguerite" or "Paris Daisy" type of Chrys¬ 
anthemum. The color is the purest, glistening white. The flowers are 
produced continuously in the most lavish profusion on long stems, rendering 
this sort invaluable for cut flowers. They frequently measure 5 inches across; 
but even with ordinary culture the smallest should be 3 inches across. The 
form of the flower is peculiar, the center being a mass of closely arranged, 
fringed florets, with a circle of broad ray petals about 20 in number around 
the center. As a pot plant for winter blooming it is of great value. Price, 
15c. each, $1.50 per doz. See Flowering and Ornamental Plants, page 175, 
for other “ Marguerites .’*
