MRS. S. P. ROTAN—A perfectly double flower of brilliant golden yel- 
low, shading to deep orange with age. Its growth is compact, and 
on the whole is one of the most striking of the recent introductions. 
Usually classed as a hardy and has been good with me. Matures 
early October. 
TINTS OF GOLD—Tke earliest yellow-orange pompon I know of. May 
be disbudded or grown to sprays. Disbudded blooms 3% inches; 
spray 2 inch blooms. Color most unusual, as it is a medley of all 
yellow, copper and bronze shades mingled somewhat as the coloring 
of the Talisman Rose. Matures here by October 10th. 
IRENE—A very early white button pompon, maturing here shortly after 
the middle of October. Growth is short and compact. Grows well 
in pots. Very popular as an extra early white button. 
MURILLO—While not quite as early as some hardies, it still is one of 
the best pinks in the early hardy section. Also very strong growth 
and hardy. A favorite aaong the pinks. Blooms mid-October on. 
GLOMORO—A very free flowering bronzy orange pompon with blooms 
about 1% inches in diameter. Has proved very dependable for out- 
side planting and is very popular owing to its early maturity— 
October 5th to 10th. Grows about 2 feet in height. 
GRANNY.SCOVILL—A warm coral-bronze in color, dwarf and branch- 
ing growth with excellent foliage. Individual blooms about 4 inches 
in diameter and of the shaggy type. Height about 2 feet. Matures 
by mid-October. 
YELLOW GEM—tThis new pompon is highly recommended for outside 
planting as it is low of growth—15 inches, very free flowering and 
matures its blooms from October 15th on. Perfect for edging a bed 
of taller growing varieties. 
SNOW CLOUD —tThis is a pure white pompon of the large type. Yith 
me it reaches about 3 feet and matures its bloom by mid-October. 
RED FLARE—One of the first bright red pompon varieties to mature. 
It is true pompon type about 2 inches in diameter; strong upright 
growth and attains about 20 inches in height; matures its blooms 
by mid-October. 
MULDOON—A rather unusual color—purplish amaranth. The flowers 
are of the pompon type. The variety is free flowering and of good 
growth. Blooms 2 inches in diameter mature by mid-October on 
plants around 2 ft. in height. 
LITTLE BOB—tThis is a s aall red button of medium height that is grow- 
ing in popularity owing to its early blooming date—Ociober 15th. 
LUCIFER—This is truly a blazing red variety of the decorative type. 
With me it grows tall and matures its fiery red blooms by the mid- 
dle of October. 
DOTSON, PINK—With me an unusually good early old rose button. It 
is rather short in growth, but right after middle of October is cov- 
ered with old rose buttons that hold their color here. 
PINK DOT—A large-flowering pompon of light pink color with a dark 
spot in the center. It grows tall and matures the last week in Oc- 
tober. Also fine for sprays, A popular early pink pompon, 
YELLOW DOT—The yellow sport of Pink Dot—identical in all respects 
except color. Makes an ideal companion flower for Pink Dot. 
ARCADIA—A really outstanding late introduction. A large pure white 
pompon that makes a perfect ball. Is of vigorous growth, 3% ft., 
and an excellent producer. Also requires practically no disbudding, 
which is an important consideration. I predict it will take the lead 
in its class and color. Matures fully by Oct. 20th.
