CHRYSANTHEMUMS, HARDY. 
Per 10 
These Chrysanthemums are available for early spring delivery 
only and are offered in a 2 in. pot plant. Each plant will be 
shipped with the original ball, potted in Neponset green paper 
pots, properly packed so as to insure 100% delivery. These 
better types of Chrysanthemums are hard to handle as dormant 
plants and for that reason we recommend the pot plants and 
you may rest assured you will have 100% stand on these plants 
and blooms the first year. 
The following New Hardy Chrysanthemums which we are offer¬ 
ing are recent introductions of one of the foremost Chrysan¬ 
themum hybridzers in the United States. We can truthfully 
recommend these to you as something new and different and 
well worth your consideration.

again in September. 4 to 5 ft...95
