Goblin. Unusual is this pompon in that it is 
actually graceful in its habit of flowering rath¬ 
er than formal as are the pompon kinds. The 
airy branching habit which characterizes the 
plant has in part been captured from its Kor¬ 
ean ancestor. The blossoms perfectly formed, 
two inches across, are so nicely placed that 
each flower stands out distrinctly notwith¬ 
standing its free-flowering qualities. The col¬ 
or is a splendid warm bronze shading to spark¬ 
ling gold in the open flower. A distinct and 
lovely addition to this popular type. Height 2 
feet.50c each, 3 for $1.25

semi-double flowers on short, branching stems. 
The color is bright rose-red, later shading to 
a rose and salmon-gold—a unique combination.

pon type producing quantities of miniature 
blossoms slightly over 1 inch across. The col¬ 
or is a clear golden-yellow remarkable for its 
brilliance and intensity. Commencing to flow¬ 
er in August. It is easily the most colorful 
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.

age 4 inches in diameter, are fully double, and

est bronze shadings appear occasionally.

racy. The flowers are large, 3 inches across,

sturdy stems; Height 3 ft...30c each, 3 for 75c
