STANDARD VARIETIES EDMMEREIAL EHRYSANTHEMUMS 
Price: 3 plants 50c, $2.00 per dozen, $15.00 per 100 
Commercial Chrysanthemums are grown for the cut-flower market and Florist trade. The 
earliest of these, such as Early Frost, Gold Lode, Indianola, etc., will flower satisfactorily in the 
garden for amateur growers. 
When grown outdoors we cannot guarantee them to be entirely hardy, so we would suggest 
that after flowering, the roots be lifted and carried over in a cold frame or root cellar until the 
following spring.
