Early Chrysanthemums 
Department of Agriculture Originations

tions, these new varieties should prove particularly valuable in

have proved hardy at Ithaca, N. Y.

inches across. Dwarf, spready habit. Height, 1 Y feet. In full

Pedigreed Seeds 
Selected from pedigreed parents—our own seedstock—you can 
anticipate a profusion of beautiful flowers in a choice blend of 
colors that are characteristic of the Hybrid Korean type. It is a 
strain for the connoisseur and should not be confused with seed 
taken indiscriminately from field plants. 
Seed sown from February until March—depending on the 
latitude—will bloom profusely the first year and, with good cul¬ 
ture, can be grown anywhere that Chrysanthemums can be 
flowered successfully. 
SINGLE KOREAN HYBRIDS. Single flowers in the finest colors. 
$1 per pkg. of not less than 150 seeds. 
DOUBLE KOREAN HYBRIDS. These will vary in type, pro¬ 
ducing single, semi-double, and a proportion of full double sorts. 
All very beautiful. $1 per pkg. of not less than 100 seeds.
