1941 Presents 
Three New Hardy 
Cliysanthemum Iutroductions 
AVAILABLE FOR THE FIRST TIME 
We are indeed happy to announce our affiliation 
with Mr. Alex Cuming of Bristol, Conn., famed 
originator of Hardy Chrysanthemums. This for- 
tunate arrangement shall enable us to bring New 
Chrysanthemums to our customers at wholesale in 
the first year of their introduction, where formerly 
these highly prized new items have been available 
oniy through very restricted retail channels.

EUGENE A. WANDER 
A big, brilliant, glistening gold- 
en 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 sel- 
dom exceeds eighteen inches 
and is in full flower by Sep- 
tember 20th--therefore valuable 
where earliness is important. It 
is a hardy, easily grown variety, 
requiring no pinching or special 
handling to produce flowers 41% 
to 5 inches across or larger if 
disbudded. Fine also for pot cul- 
ture. Occasional plants assume 
bronzy-yellow tints, but are just 
as attractive.

MRS. PIERRE S. 
DUPONT III 
The quality of iridescence is so 
pronounced in this fine new 
Hardy Chrysanthemum that ac- 
curate description is difficult. 
The dominant shade is a soft 
peach tinted with rosy-salmon 
and fawn shades; the whole 
overcast with an indescribably 
luminous sheen. It is entirely 
distinct and altogether lovely. 
The large, full, perfectly formed 
flowers are carried on _ tall 
branching stems, making a 
strong, sturdy, 2% ft. plant. In 
full flower in early October, it 
will prove a grand addition to 
the garden and an invaluable 
cut flower variety.

MILKY WAY 
This is outstanding among all white Hardy Chrysanthe- 
mums; first for the remarkable intensity of its milky white 
color in the open flower; again for its rich dark green 
foliage which contrasts so effectively with the soft lemon 
tints of the opening flower, creating an effect distinctly 
different from that of any other white variety. Blossoms 
are of the semi-double informal type, with broad over- 
lapping petals and are carried in branchy sprays of 5 to 6. 
Unusually hardy as a plant, the open flower is remarkably 
frost resistant—a valuable trait where early frosts may in- 
jure the opening flower, particularly on white kinds. A 
strong vigorous plant 21% to 3 feet in height, flowering in 
late September.
