OCTOBER FLOWERING 'MUMS 
Under this heading we have a number of garden Chrysanthemums which 
are at their best during the first two weeks of October. 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. 
Argenteuillais Each $0.25, Doz. $2.50 
Well shaped scarlet-bronzy flowers tipped with gold are produced in 
great quantities. Exceptionally hardy variety of medium height. 
Caliph Each $0.50, Doz. $4.50 
For intensity of color, this variety cannot be equaled. The color is ox- 
blood-red, with a rich velvety sheen or glow so prominent that it stands 
out conspicuously among all other Chrysanthemums of this color. In addi¬ 
tion, it has a fine growing habit. Remarkably free in flowering. A real 
advance. Height 21/2 feet. 
Cheerfulness Each $0.25, Doz. $2.50 
Golden coppery button-like flowers in profusion which sparkle in the 
autumn sunlight. Well named. 
Firebrand Each $0.25, Doz. $2.50 
Wonderfully bright semi-double scarlet blooms which combine well with 
autumn foliage. 
Granny Scovill Each $0.35, Doz. $3.50 
If you would ask us we would tell you that this at present is one of the 
loveliest of garden 'mums. The full, well formed, fluffy flowers are fully 
4'/2 inches across. The color is a glowing, clear, warm coral-bronze; in 
full bloom early October. Height 2 feet. 
Harvest Home Each $0.25, Doz. $2.50 
Beautiful midseason flowering variety. Medium height and covered with 
large golden yellow flowers about 3 inches across. 
Jean Cumming Each $0.25, Doz. $2.50 
Large flowers of purest white, with softest yellow and bluish shading 
at the center of the buds. Growth erect and wiry, height medium. 
Exceptional keeping qualities. 
Louisa Schling Each $0.30, Doz. $3.00 
The flowers are of good size, fully three inches across, with three or 
four rows of petals, fluffy and distinct in appearance. Glowing salmon- 
coppery-red in color, changing to a lovely soft bronze-salmon as the 
flower matures. It is remarkably free flowering. 
Mandarin Each $0.50, Doz. $4.50 
Coral, salmon, copper, and bronzy gold blend to a delightful combina¬ 
tion. An iridescent glow changing with the degree of light, is so promi¬ 
nent that the color effect, never exactly the same, is lovely even after 
the flower matures. Perfectly formed double flowers, 2'/2 inches across, 
are carried profusely on erect, wiry stems. 
Mrs. H. Harrison Each $0.25, Doz. $2.50 
Medium height. Plant produces large clusters of fine, full double pink 
flowers with cream-pink center. Excellent pompon. 
Moonlight Each $0.25, Doz. $2.50 
Large, pale blush, single variety excellent in the border and with other 
'mums to lend contrast to the darker tones. 
Ouray Each $0.25, Doz. $2.50 
The masses of blooms are a rich bronze with coppery glow. Very early 
flowering and of medium height, noted for its hardiness as well as its 
brilliant colors. 
Provence Each $0.25, Doz. $2.50 
Early and dwarf, very free-flowering sort. Pale pink flowers fading to 
white with yellow center. Excellent cut flower and hardy. 
Rapture Each $0.25, Doz. $2.50 
Lovely, medium sized, double flowers combining a beautiful deep orange 
with a lively suffusion of bright carmine. 
R. Marion Hatton Each $0.25, Doz. $2.50 
In addition to exceptional freedom in blooming, it is one of the earliest 
to flower, and certainly the brightest canary-yellow avialable, flowering 
from late September on. It is remarkably resistant to frost. 
Romany Each $0.50, Doz. $4.50 
A lovely flower that truly defies accurate description. Fairly glowing in 
the subdued autumn sunshine. Glowing carmine-red, with fine bronze- 
red tones. Large, full double flowers of nice form are produced freely. 
A fine garden and cut-flower variety. Height 21/2 feet. 
Ruth Cumming Each $0.25, Doz. $2.50 
Regardless of the seasons it has never failed to make a fine showing. 
Rich reddish-bronze in color, with terra-cotta shades aging to an even, 
soft bronze tone and one that immediately attracts attention. 
Symphony Each $0.50, Doz. $4.50 
Mauve-rose overcast soft coppery rose, with the sheen of'a damask silk. 
The flower in maturing acquires silvery lilac and faint copper tones, 
very lovely but elusive and impossible to describe with accuracy. The 
flowers are large, 3 inches across, double, nicely formed, and carried on 
heavy, sturdy stems, several to a spray or cluster. Free-flowering. 
Height 2'/2 to 3 feet. 
White Doty Each $0.25, Doz. $2.50 
The tall, straight, upright flower stalks, never needing any support, 
carry large heads of pure white pompon flowers. Excellent for cutting 
or in the background of other varieties.

SEPTEMBER FLOWERING VARIETIES 
In this group we find with a few exceptions all new varieties. Through 
careful breeding and selecting, the time of flowering of these Chrysan¬ 
themums has been advanced by fully a month over the older varieties. 
They are not only in advance in blooming time but also far ahead in 
clearness and loveliness of color and are far more attractive in general. 
Masses of bloom may be had from early September and throughout 
October. 
Aladdin Each $0.30, Doz. $3.00 
The first blooms appear late in July and early August, the color at first 
being an exquisite warm coppery bronze, with an overlay of orange- 
apricot shade which deepens in early autumn. 
Carrie Each $0.25, Doz. $2.50 
As early as Glory of Seven Oaks and of practically the same habit, but 
the flowers are a clean, clear pale yellow. 
Early Bronze Each $0.25, Doz. $2.50 
(Edmund F. Black). A remarkably early flowering, early pompon in full 
glory in September. Splendid for garden or cutting. Usually free 
blooming. 
Enchantress Each $0.25, Doz. $2.50 
Semi-double rose of delicate, yet strong, clear coloring. Fine in garden 
and for cutting. 
Glory of Seven Oaks Each $0.25, Doz. $2.50 
Soft but clear yellow masses of bloom have made it a great favorite. 
Medium height and fine for a planting in front of taller varieties. 
Halo Each $0.25, Doz. $2.50 
Deep rose, white at base of petals. Medium-sized single. A fine early 
free-flowering variety. Always does well. 
Harvest Each $0.30, Doz. $3.00 
A most unusual color in Chrysanthemums, resembling Breeder Tulip 
Apricot. A light bronze overlaid with deep old rose. A charming color 
for the garden as well as indoors. 
Ohio Gold Each $0.30, Doz. $3.00 
Noted especially for its early blooming. Commences in early September 
and carries through until late fall. Fully double, golden orange-yellow 
flowers produced in abundance. Good habit. Fine for cutting. 
Princess Each $0.25, Doz. $2.50 
Very large single white. Splendid for contrasting darker toned varieties. 
Pygmy Gold Each $0.50, Doz. $4.50 
A distinct dwarf Korean Pompon type producing quantities of minia¬ 
ture blossoms slightly over 1 inch across. The color is a clear golden 
yellow remarkable for its brilliance and intensity. Commencing to flower 
in early September, it is easily the most colorful early Chrysanthemum 
yet introduced. Unusual, also, because it retains its effectiveness right 
up until the season ends. Grouped in the rock garden or hardy border 
or used for edging, it will prove the delight of the autumn. 
Redskin Each $0.25, Doz. $2.50 
Large single deep orange-scarlet shading to coppery rose with age. Ex¬ 
ceedingly clear in color. 
Sunbright 
Single pure yellow flowers which sparkle with life in sunlight,

cut flower and brilliant in the garden.
