less dainty. 
Ember Three $1.10, Doz. $3.30, 100 $20.00 
In color, a brilliant glowing bronze that stands out conspicuously 
in comparison with any others in this color. It is, in fact, a 
combination of coral and orange shades that cannot be described

Garden Chrysanthemums 
OCTOBER FLOWERING VARIETIES 
Under this heading we have a number of garden Chrysanthe¬ 
mums which are at their best during the first two weeks of Oc¬ 
tober. Later flowering varieties are of little use because they 
are usually damaged before coming into full bloom by either 
snow or frost. The colors of all these are sparkling and bright. 
All kinds offered are useful as cut flowers as well as for garden 
decoration.

duced in great quantities. Exceptionally hardy variety of me¬

For intensity of color, this variety cannot be equaled. The color 
is oxblood-red, with a rich velvety sheen or glow so prominent 
that it stands out conspicuously among all other chrysanthe¬ 
mums of this color. In addition, it has a fine growing habit. 
Remarkably free flowering. A real advance. Height 2V 2 feet.

ers, 3 to SV 2 inches across, attaining perfection in late Septem¬ 
ber. Height 2 to 2% feet.
