e do not guarantee continued growth. At our prices it is impossible for us to guarantee growth or to be 
responsible for stock after delivery to our customers in good condition. So many factors over which we have no 
control govern the life and growth of plants, after they leave our custody, that we do not feel that we should be 
held responsible for their growth. JOS. W. VESTAL & SON 


yl CHRYSANTHEMUMS 
HE Chrysanthemum is one of the world’s oldest cultivated flowers. Originating in China, 
“The Mother of Gardens,” as tiny pink and yellow daisies, less than an inch in diameter, it 
was taken mto their gardens by both the Chinese and Japanese, and, through centuries of 
breeding and selection by those pamstaking plant-lovers, has been developed into the glorious ex- 
hibition and garden varieties we have today. 
There are several distinct types in cultivation today, the most important of which we offer. 
The so-called Japanese or Exhibition type, grown under glass in the North and in gardens in the 
South, requires care and good culture to produce the mammoth flowers so desired. 
The Hardy Garden Chrysanthemums, the Pompons, Buttons, and Singles are truly everybody’s 
flower, blooming in splendid sprays. They are easy to grow and furnish quantities of long-lasting 
cut-flowers, brightening the garden for many weeks.
