ODD FORMED VARIETIES 
This type in most instances is unsatisfactory for general commercial use. 
The reason is the petals are so long and fragile that they cannot, without 
injury, be shipped and handled as most Chrysanthemums are. To those who 
arrange their own products they are quite serviceable for the grace and 
beauty they impart. 
Introductions for 1939 
DAIBUTSU —(Introduced in Japan and known there as Seiko no Tzuzumi). 
Owing to size and superlative quality, have applied the name of the ancient Japa¬ 
nese Buddha. The largest and most double of all the Japanese tubular petaled 
varieties we have seen. The outer exposed surface of the tubes is rosy purple 
with slightly hooked or spoon shaped extremities of the same shade. The flowers 
remain in good condition for three weeks or more becoming lighter in color until 
they are white lightly tinted pink. The originators’ description gives the diameter 
as 18 inches. Flowers from November first to December first. Tall in growth. 
SAKIKO —A Japanese tubular variety of our origination. The color is light 
bronze, the tube-like petals being 7 inches long presenting a flower twice that in 
diameter. Each tube is curled or hooked at its extremity. Being the favorite type 
of the Japanese, we have named this variety for the daughter of one of their Am¬ 
bassadors of recent years. 
STAR-KIST —The pure white tubular petals of this variety are one-twelfth of 
an inch in diameter and the spoon-like openings at the extremity curl upward 
forming a hook. May be disbudded to produce flowers ten or more inches or all 
buds may be allowed to develop to secure graceful sprays for artistic arrangement. 
Matures about November 20. 
Plants from 2V4*inch pots: $1.50 each; $12.50 per ten. 
Not less than five of a variety at ten rate.
