Attention! Southern Gardeners 
Through the courtesy of trial gardeners interested in chrysanthemum culture 
out of doors, we are able to submit a list of the varieties considered best under 
growing conditions prevalent in the extreme South. These varieties have been 
grown as far south as Houston and Mercedes, Texas where the difference in lati¬ 
tude retards the blooming from ten to twenty days later than the date given in 
our catalog. Hence it is possible for southern gardeners to enjoy a longer season 
of chrysanthemums out-of-doors than those living farther north.
