The Chrysanthemum is the queen of 
autumn flowers. For massive blooms, 
grandeur of colors, ease of culture, and 
certainty to flower, there is no plant 
that will surpass them. 
While there are a great many varie¬ 
ties to choose from, we have selected 
those which we believe will give our 
customers the most enjoyment.

CALCEOLARIA 
An ornamental house plant, producing a

flowering. No plants to offer. Seed, 35c per 
packet.

sowing should be made. Pkt., 25c. Plants,
