SIX NEW HARDY 
CHRYSANTHEMUMS 
Some of our most popular varieties of hardy Chrysanthemums 
have proven quite tricky in that they lack extreme hardiness under 
all climatic conditions. The foliage appears to burn and falls off 
and the flowers are of insufficient substance, and the first light frost 
discolors the bloom beyond recognition. 
There has been a long-felt need for a race of hardy Chrysan- 
themums that not only retain the beauty of their foliage and flowers 
after frost, but are absolutely hardy under all climatic conditions, 
and are of such sturdy and vigorous growth that staking is not 
required. 
We predict that these 6 Arcticum Hybrids will be the forerunners 
of the most popular strain of hardy garden Chrysanthemums. 
ARCTIC QUEEN. Large, Daisy-like blooms with several rows of broad petals 
on strong stems. A beautiful, bronzy yellow suffused with salmon. Foliage 
absolutely disease-resistant. Perfectly fool-proof and makes a splendid 
cut flower of great lasting quality. 
CORAL SEA. Dwarf spreading habit, plants are literally covered with hun- 
dreds of blossoms until the most severe killing frost. Flowers are double, 
of decorative type, the color a salmon-buff suffused with coppery rose 
softening to creamy salmon when the flowers are open. Hardy in sub-zero 
climate. Disease resistant. Very valuable for low borders and rock gardens. 
DUBONNET. A lovely autumn color. Single amaranth-pink with beautiful 
glossy foliage. Insect and frost resistant. 
POLLYANA. The large, graceful single blossoms resemble a Gerbera or Trans- 
vaal Daisy on stems 21% ft. high. The color is a luminous Mayflower-pink 
with a sheen of rosy salmon. Delightfully different from all other garden 
Chrysanthemums. A very vigorous grower clothed with beautiful foliage. 
Absolutely hardy and disease and insect resistant. An ideal cut flower 
variety. 
WHITE CLOUD. Pure white, double blooms produced profusely in September. 
Not as hardy as the other Arcticums but extremely valuable because of 
the scarcity of good double white hardy Chrysanthemums. 
WINSOME. All of the disease resistant and hardy attributes of the other 
varieties. The color is o superior soft peach-blossom-pink. Extremely free 
flowering. 
Strong 214-in. pot-grown plants, 75c each; 3 for $2.00; $7.50 per doz. 
COLLECTION: 1 each of the 6 yeett OG $4.00. 3 each of the 6 varieties,
