CALiPH—This new introduction is the deepest and richest red to date; 
a deep oxblood red with a velvety sheen that makes it conspicuous. 
Flowers are perfectly formed, double, and carried on vigorous up- 
_ right stems; 3 ft tall with me; Blooms early October. 
VENUS—A most attractive shade of rhodanthe-pink. The flower is 
single, 2% inches across, with 3 or 4 rows of petals. It is remark- 
ably free flowering, with slender, wiry branches that carry a mul- 
titude of blooms on generous spray. Commences to flower the very 
first of October. Grows about 3 feet tall. 
AGNES-SELKIRK CLARK—A lovely single, blending bronzy pink, 
apricot and salmon. This results in an exquisite touch of Autumn 
color in the garden. Plants are tall, rather graceful in their growth 
and free-flowering. In full flower by Oct. Ist. 
EMBER—Another hardy double Korean. Its double flowers are about 
2% inches in diameter and are of a glowing bronze color that stands 
out conspicuously in any garden. Decidedly hardy. Height about 3 
ft. Blooms here Oct. 10. 
ROMANY—tThis Korean is a soft glowing red with a bronze tone, which 
effect is heightened by the gold petal reverse which shows on the 
center petals. Blooms are fully double; will last fully two weeks 
as a cut flower; and are in full bloom first few days of October. 
Height 3 ft. and better. 
INDIAN SUMMER—A vivid, glowing orange that is striking even among 
a garden full of mums. Flowers 3 inches across and of somewhat 
shaggy form, but still attractive. Growth is fully 3 feet and better 
and stems are long and hold flowers up erect. Blooms are fully 
double and last well when cut. Blooms around October 15th. 
VULCAN—A glowing carmine-red which shades to garnet-crimson and 
finally to an attractive bronze-crimson as the flower matures. It 
has a double row of ray-like petals with a conspicuous golden center 
and is slightly fragrant. In full flower the first few days of October. 
MERCURY—A fine 3 inch single flower which opens a bronzy red and 
changes to a coppery bronze at maturity. Grows about 2 feet tall 
and is an early bloomer. 
THALIA—A compact, bushy plant that grows about 18 inches tall and 
is covered with small duplex flowers of a lively orange shade. An 
early blooming variety. 
HESTIA—Semi-double flowers are very freely produced. The color is 
a delicate rose pink with a white halo around the small yellow disc. 
It is very attractive. Grows to medium height and blooms early. 
SYMPHONY—A mauve-rose with soft coppery rose tints, and the whole 
overcast with a sheen like damask silk. I agree with the introducer 
that it is hard to describe the color and that it is rightly called 
“Symphony,” and it is a symphony of colors. The flowers are 3 
inches across, double, nicely formed and carried on heavy upright 
stems. With me it grew 4 feet and made a handsome plant. In full 
bloom the first week of October. 
MANDARIN—A delightful combination or blend of coral, salmon, cop- 
per and bronzy gold. It seems to have an irridescent glow that 
changes with the degree of light—never exactly the same. The 
flowers are perfectly formed, 242 inches across and are carried pro- 
fusely on erect wiry stems. The plant is compact in habit of growth 
and inclined to be somewhat dwarf, attaining a height of about 2 
feet. In full flower the first week of October. 
SALADIN—A most unusual color—even for the Korean hybrids, being 
best described as a Chinese or Oriental red shading to coral-red with 
coppery tones showing on the petal reverses. The blossoms are 3 
inches across and have 4 rows of petals. In full flower by Oct. 12th. 
NANCY COPELAND—Another single, but a spectrum-red this time, 
having an opalescent sheen which varies with the Autumn light— 
producing changeable color effects. It is a strong, upright plant 3 
ft. tall and better, and with flowers 3 inches and better. In full 
bloom by October 10th.
