tions in the perennial world. The Korean 
Chrysanthemums are especially fine for cold 
climates. They are much hardier, more at¬ 
tractive in color, and because of their early 
blooming they are not damaged by the early 
frosts. They come in lovely pastel shades 
that are difficult to describe accurately. Ex¬ 
cellent for table decoration.
