CHRYSANTHEMUM MAXIMUM - Shasta Daisy 
Hardy perennials of easy culture, and especially noteworthy for their 
freedom in flowering. There are two distinct types of this genus. 
One is the Shasta Daisy, which bears large, white flowers on long stems, 
and is, therefore, invaluable for cutting, and the other is the Leucan- 
themum, the Daisy of our meadows. It grows 2 feet high, and bears 
white flowers freely from June to August. Maximum (Shasta Daisy) 
is a European species, and the parent of a number of very beautiful 
varieties, as Etoile d'Or, Mrs. Charles Lothian Bell and others. 
Culture. The Shasta Daisies require a deep, rich soil to grow them 
to perfection. In poor soils they soon assume a weedy aspect. They 
must have a sunny position. They should be planted 1 foot apart. It 
is advisable to lift and divide the root stocks every alternate year, then 
the plants will be more compact in growth and also yield much finer 
flowers than if left undisturbed. Uliginosum, being a tall grower, should 
be grown in wide borders or massed in the wild garden. Plant in fall 
or spring. 
SEPTEMBER FLOWERING KOREAN 
CHRYSANTHEMUMS 
New Early Korean Hybrid Chrysanthemums 
From thousands of seedlings of 1934, the following Korean Hybrids 
were selected, not alone for the novel color tones in many of them, 
and their variations in form, but most particularly because of their 
flowering ten days to two weeks earlier than the Korean crosses here¬ 
tofore offered. The Korean Hybrids have been welcomed not alone for 
their dainty flowers and graceful plants, but particularly for their 
increased hardiness. The varieties here offered will begin flowering in 
early September and continue well through October.
