Chrysanthemum--Hardy Garden Varieties 
Carroll Gardens offers you one of America’s finest and most up-to-date collections. 
Three New Sensations of 1941 
Eugene O. Wander. A big, brilliant, glistening 
golden-yellow beauty, flowering so freely that 
the stocky growing plant is almost obscured by 
its branching clusters of big double flowers— 
each one the height of perfection in form. 
Plant seldom exceeds eighteen inches and is 
in full flower by September 20th—therefore 
valuable where earliness is important. It is a 
hardy, easily grown variety, requiring no 
pinching or special handling to produce flowers 
4% to 5 inches across or larger if disbuded. 
Fine also for pot culture. NOTE: Occasional 
plants assume bronzy-yellow tints, but are just

Mrs. Pierre S. Dupont III. The quality of iri- 
descence is so pronounced in this fine new 
chrysanthemum that accurate description is 
difficult. The dominant shade is a soft peach 
tinted with rose-salmon and fawn shades; the 
whole overcast with an indescribably luminous 
sheen. It is entirely distinct and altogether 
lovely. The large, full perfectly formed flow- 
ers are carried on tall branching stems, mak- 
OUTSTANDING 
Acacia. A profusion of small, glittering, de- 
lightfully fragrant yellow blossoms completely 
cover the plant in late September, and remain 
fresh and attractive long after other kinds have 
been destroyed, due to a remarkable degree of 
frost resistance. The blossoms, slightly over 
one inch across, are flat, semi-double, sulphur- 
yellow and exceptionally brilliant. Height 2 
feet. Late Septembev.......... 35¢ each, 3 for 90c 
Autumn Lights. Departing from the conven- 
tional ’mum type, this latest addition will ap- 
ing a strong, sturdy, 24% foot plant. In full 
flower in early October; it will prove a grand 
addition to the garden and a valuable cut 
Mower Varicty.2.0 ee. 75¢e each, 3 for $2.00 
Milky Way. A magnificent creamy-white that is 
outstanding among all white kinds; first for 
the remarkable intensity of its milky white 
color in the open flower; again for its rich 
dark green foliage which contrasts so effective- 
ly with the soft lemon tints of the opening 
flower, creating an effect distinctly different 
from that of any other white variety. Blos- 
soms are of the semi-double informal type, 
with broad overlapping petals and carried in 
branchy sprays of 5 to 6. Unusually hardy 
as a plant, the oven flower is remarkably frost 
resistant—a valuable trait where early frosts 
may injure the opening flower particularly on 
white kinds. A strong vigorous plant 2% to 
3 ft. in height, flowering in late September.

peal to all who appreciate autumnal color. 
Masses of coppery bronze semi-double blos- 
soms, with a gleaming orange tone which il- 
luminates the bronze tints, two inches or more 
across, completely cover the compact, branchy 
plants. It is conspicuously different from all 
kinds in this color. Healthy, dark green foli- 
age plus unusual hardiness derived from Chrys- 
anthemum Arcticum, the parent strain, are 
among’ its desirable qualities. Height 18 inches.
