Chrysanthemums, Autumn's farewell to the Garden 
Hardy Chrysanthemums 
Just when Nature starts on vacation— 
from early September to “killing frost” time 
—the Harfly Chrysanthemums hurst into a 
radiant disi)Iay of color, beauty, and form. 
Resplendent m rainbow-like colors, some 
bold and vivid, some dainty and exquisite, 
they add a radiance and a zest to autumn, 
the beauty of which remains a. delightful and 
refreshing memory. Chrysanthemums grow 
easily, preferring a good, rich soil. Pinch back 
in June and late July to insure bushy plants. 
Apply a dressing of fertilizer during July.
