Novelties in Feathery, Spidery, and Threadlike Varieties 
Price: 50c each, $5.00 per dozen, $35.00 per 100 
Where one wishes late flowers and has a conservatory or greenhouse, we recommend that just a 
few of the following varieties be grown. 
This collection as shown by Mr. George Gillies at the Museum of Natural History last fall created 
a sensation among the visitors to the Show. He was awarded a silver medal for this exhibit. 
Baroness Hilla Rebay 
NOVELTIES 
BARONESS HILLA REBAY 
A bronzy salmon-buff shading to old gold as the flower 
ages. In other words, it deepens intensely in the bronzy 
shadings as the flower develops. Very fine full petal- 
age. Nice heavy grower, fully matured November 10th. 
DAIBUSTI 
A rosy cream spidery type with a center of creamy 
yellow. This is the largest of all the spidery types. The 
petals are quilled and curl at the tips in such a way 
as to appear to be little golden knots. A little late for 
the shows being at its best November 15th. 
MARIAN BELL 
A very fluffy feathery type of glistening white. Beau¬ 
tiful large flowers which attract immediate attention 
wherever shown. One of the most outstanding of this 
type, since its fluffy petals form perfectly rounded 
flowers, and when disbudded can be grown almost to 
the size of the exhibition type. 
MARILYN 
A very dwarf old rose and lavender-pink combination. 
One of the spidery type and a very fine variety in 
every way. Makes an ideal pot plant or would be most 
suitable for growing in the side benches of a green¬ 
house since it is a dwarf grower. 
SANDY SHAW 
Deep lemon yellow in color with long thin graceful 
petals. Dwarf growth but extremely vigorous and one 
of the most pleasing and attractive of the Spidery 
type. Fully matured by November 15th. 
VIRGINIA 
Clear deep yellow with long quilled petals which open 
at the tips and reflect to about twice the width of the 
petals on the balance of the flower. Can be either dis¬ 
budded to make large individual flowers, or grown in 
sprays. Grown either way it is most attractive. 
STANDARD VARIETIES 
Price: 3 plants 75c, $3.00 per dozen, 
$20.00 per 100 
FUGI (The Wisteria) 
The largest of the entire set; pale lavender in color. 
MILO ASTELL 
In character and type it resembles “Source d’Or” with 
its shaggy thin petals but the color is a magnificent 
Mohegan red. Dwarf and robust in growth it is equally 
valuable for growing in the garden or as pot plants. 
Flowers in early November. 
UNIQUE 
A flower that is well named, for it is the most unique 
Chrysanthemum we have to present to our customers. 
The color is rich wine red and the thin quilled petals 
stand stiffly out from the center of the flower. A tall 
gi'ower and should be planted late. 
WHITE MRS. FILKINS 
A pure white ’Mum, producing many flowers on a 
plant. Nice stiff stems, excellent for cut-flower work 
and very novel in petalage. 
WHITE THREAD 
A beautiful and interesting variety resembling noth¬ 
ing so much as a quantity of short white threads 
growing on a stem. In contrast with large varieties in 
any exhibition it always calls forth great interest. 
Thread-like type.
