POMPON CHRYSANTHEMCMS 
FREQUENTLY KNOWN AS THE BUTTON TYPE 
These are the old-fashioned form of Chrysanthemum blooming later in the season than any 
of the other types. For cut-flower work they are unexcelled since they produce long sprays with 
the blooms gracefully arranged on the stem. 
Price: 3 plants 75c, $3.00 per dozen, $20.00 per 100.
