Throughout the Northwest we need the very hardiest Chrysanthemums that will blossom before hard free 2 ;ing weather 
comes. The varieties we offer flower, with us, from the latter part of August to the middle of October. 
Often our plants are just giving us their best blossoms when an early free 2 ,e comes. Just before we expect such a freeze, 
we pot many of these plants and bring them inside and enjoy their beauty for two or more weeks. This blooming plant that 
costs you around 25c is now worth two or three dollars if purchased from a greenhouse. These same plants may be kept in a 
cool place all winter and reset in the garden in the spring. 
If plants are left in the garden during the winter months, they should be well covered with coarse litter. 
Our list is a choice from many kinds we test out each year. They are the earliest and best for our northern customers. The 
further south one lives, the longer and surer the results. 
Many new varieties of hardy ’mums seem to be offered each year to the buying public. We purchase many of these and try 
them out but find only a few that are really good. These we add to our list from year to year. 
Prices: 25c each; 3 of one kind, 70c; 10 of one kind, $2.00, postpaid.

bronze.
