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. 
GOLDEN FAIRY—Early disbud clear yellow pompon that will make a 
perfect ball 2% inches in diameter. Grows 21% ft. in height and 
matures third week in October. 
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. 
SARDA—A deep pink sport from PINK DOT; Of a very even and pleas- 
ing shade and shows the contrasting eye so characteristic of Pink 
Dot. Blooms 2 inches; Height 314 ft. Blooms Oct. 25th. 
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. 
JEWELL—Rightly named, as with me it has been a perfect “Jewel.” It 
is a true pompon reminding me very much of the bachelor buttons 
seen in old-fashioned gardens. This resemblance is true both as to 
color and form. It matures by October 20th and is widely grown— 
both in pots and yard or garden. 
AUTUMN GLOW—Usually classed as a hardy, and with me justly so as 
it is unusually winter-resistant. It’s blooms are a rosy crimson and 
are large for its type. The plant grows tall—about 4 feet with me, 
and seems to be just about “fool-proof.” Blooms the latter part of 
October. 
PERSIAN ROSE—With me this is a very deep lavender pompon, having 
upright but short growth, and maturing its 1% inch button-type 
blooms by Oct. 25th. Held its color in 1941 well. 
IRENE RICH—A 1932 introduction similar to Lillian Doty, but which 
holds its pink color much better. The upper surface of the petals is 
a violet-pink while the reverse is somewhat lighter. Matures Oct. 
25th 
IMPROVED RODELL—An excellent early yellow ball-shaped pompon. 
Blooms 1% inches in diameter, maturing by Oct. 25th. Continues to 
hold its popularity. 
ETHEL—A bright red baby pompon. Height about 21%4 feet and ma- 
tures about Oct. 25th. Color very pleasing; very free flowering and 
makes an excellent pot plant. 
CAPTAIN COOK—A tall growing, soft clear pink pompon of perfect ball 
shape. May be disbudded and grown 6 blooms per plant. Matures 
October 25th. 
ROSE A DORE—An extra fine rose pink true pompon of very compact 
form. Can be grown as a cluster or as a disbud pompon; also makes 
a nice pot plant. Matures the last week of October. 
CORA PECK BUHL—An excellent early yellow button variety that ma- 
tures its blooms by the last week of October. It is very popular as 
its color is probably the deepest shade of yellow in early buttons. 
JUDITH ANDERSON—A dwarf, low-growing plant with unusually nice 
foliage—fine for pot plant. It is literally covered in late October 
with yellow button mums about an inch in diameter. With me 
handles well. 
NELLIE KLERIS—A large-flowering pompon of the lavender-pink class
