HARDY CHRYSANTHEMUMS 
Chrysanthemums contribute to the autumn garden the brilliant color 
masses that the phlox varieties offer in midsummer. By selecting plants from 
each group (listed below) it is possible to have a continual succession of bloom 
from early September until severe frost has checked all growth. Chrysanthe¬ 
mums flourish in rich, well-drained soil and a sunny location. Reset the clumps 
each year to keep the plants in vigorous condition To make them branch 
freely, pinch the top growth back when the stems are 6 to 8 inches tall; repeat 
when additional growth has developed. Water freely during dry periods.
