(Early 
These new creations are especially fine for cold cli¬ 
mates where the ordinary Chrysanthemum winter-kills. 
They are most attractive in color, very early blooming, 
easier to grow, and more profuse. The lovely new 
pastel shades, which simply defy accurate description 
Flowering) 
or true color reproduction, suggest the Gerbera in their 
daintiness. Cut with short stems, they make the most 
charming table decorations, yet are capable of striking 
decorative uses if the entire branching sprays are used. 
They are compelling for color effect in the garden.

of which vary with the degree of light. 
Ember Each $0.35, Doz. $3.50 
In color, a brilliant glowing bronze that stands out conspicuously in 
comparison with any others in this color. It is, in fact, a combination

double and is of excellent form, 2'/2 inches in diameter. Flowering in 
mid-October. Height 2'/2 feet.

describe accurately. The strong, upright plant is completely covered 
with branching sprays of large, single flowers, 3 to 31/2 inches across,
