CHRYSANTHEMUMS 
Do you love Chrysanthemums but due to early frosts are 
seldom able to get them to bloom? If you are one of these 
you may take courage. We were in the same boat. We de¬ 
cided that if the ones we had wouldn’t bloom we would get 
some that would. So we ordered every good early one we could 
find advertised and last fall we had a garden of early Chrys¬ 
anthemums that attracted many people to see them. We had 
them in bloom from September 1st on. On October 12th I 
counted 37 varieties in bloom. 
No matter where you live you may grow and bloom Chrys¬ 
anthemums. To help you further I have grouped the varieties 
according to their blooming dates. If you live in the extremely 
high altitudes order your plants from the first list with maybe 
two or three to try out from the second list. Those of you 
who are a little more favorably located can grow all of the ones 
listed in the first three lists, as they are all early.
