Hardy 
Chrysanthemums 
New in IOI 
Leaders Still in Y2 
These three introductions marked the beginning of our 
affiliation with the famed Chrysanthemum originator, Mr. 
Alex Cummings. Their popularity far exceeded the supply 
and many of our customers were disappointed. This year 
we have prepared them in great quantities and we will be 
able to supply your requirements much more closely, as far 
as we are able to anticipate conditions. 1941 served to 
definitely prove their merits. Don’t fail to put them into 
your line this spring. You can be sure that they will be 
among the finest that you have growing.

The quality of iridescence is so pro- 
nounced in this fine new Hardy Chrys- 
anthemum that accurate 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, 24% ft. plant. 
In full flower in early October, it will 
prove a grand addition to the garden and 
an invaluable cut flower variety.

A big, brilliant, glistening golden yel- 
low 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 perfec- 
tion in form. Plant seldom exceeds eigh- 
teen 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 pro- 
duce flowers 4% to 5 inches across or 
larger if disbudded. Fine also for pot 
culture.

This is outstanding among all white 
Hardy Chrysanthemums. Blossoms are 
of the semi-double informal type, with 
broad overlapping petals and are carried 
in branchy sprays of 5 to 6. Unusually 
hardy as a plant, the open flower is re- 
markably frost resistant — a valuable 
trait where early frosts may injure the 
opening flower, particularly on white 
kinds. 
3 feet in height, flowering in late Sep- 
tember.
