scent. The plant attains a height of 1% to 2 feet and the leaves 
are decidedly “heart” shaped. For mass effect in the gardens it 
could hardly be surpassed. In full bloom by Oct. 5th. 
PALE MOON—Fluffy, lovely double flowers of sulphur-yellow com- 
pletely cover the compact-growing plant, suggesting the play of 
moon beams. It begins to bloom early in October and continues 
over an extended period. This soft yellow blends with typical 
mum colors. 
KING MIDAS—A double hardy. Korean of a clear yellow color with 
occasional shadings of tan. Height about 3 ft. Blooms here Oct. 1st 
on. Individual flowers 3 inches. 
- THE MOOR—Another double Korean that may be described as port- 
wine-red in color—very intense and brilliant even in full sun. Flow- 
ers 3 inches, full double, produced freely and keep well. Height 
about 3 ft. Blooms here October Ist and on. 
PINK LUSTRE—An orchid-pink single. It is a sturdy variety and very 
hardy. Of strong upright growth (3 ft. easily). It produces strong 
branching sprays from October lst on. In fact it bloomed for me 
the last of September. 
APHRODITE—This is a single that opens as a soft pink and then slow- 
ly changes to an ivory-white with just a trace of pink remaining. 
The petal arrangement somewhat resembles the Gerbera. Equally 
effective when grouped in garden or massed. Height 3 ft. Blooms 
first week of October. 
SATURN—Brilliant sparkling orange and bronze, enhanced by a soft 
orange ring surrounding the golden yellow center. It is robust of 
growth and free branching. Flowers are of excellent texture and 
about 3 inches across, are single and are produced in graceful 
sprays. Has some fragrance. Height over 3 ft. In full flower by 
Oct-oth; 
- NYSA—A new hybrid, here growing fully 31% ft. tall and bearing a pro- 
fusion of single blossoms from 24% to 3 inches across. The color is 
a clean rosy lilac. In full bloom the first few days of October. 
PSYCH E—Another new hybrid, reaching 3% ft. in height and coming 
into bloom early in October. The plants are very thrifty and the 
4-inch shell pink single blcoms are borne on erect, wiry stems. 
DAZIRA—This Korean hybrid I regard as the most free-flowering of 
the strain. A small plant in spring will make by fall a plant better 
than 20 inches tall and fully 30 inches aeross. The plant will be 
completely covered with single white flowers 2% inches in diame- 
ter. Slight pinkish cast on opening turns to white on maturity. In 
bloom Oct. 10th and on. 
LOUISE SCHLING—An outstanding variety. The flowers are fully 3 
inches across, are a soft bronzy salmon color, and have 3 to 4 rows 
of petals. Of compact growth. Matures October 5th. 
DAPHNE—A new shade of pink, being an exquisite blending of 
Daphne-pink and lilac rose, enhanced by prominent golden stamens 
in the center. Single flowers are over 3 inches, are carried in grace- 
ful sprays and are especially frost-resistant. Height around 3 feet, 
matures around October 10th. 
CERES—A combination of oldgold, chamois-yellow and bronze. Mature 
flowers appear to have petals dusted with bronze. Sturdy plants 
about 3 feet high. Flowers single; matures about October 12th. 
APOLLO—True autumn colors—a combination of bronze, red and gold 
suffused with a glowing salmon. The single flowers are 2 inches 
across and are produced in immense sprays over a long flowering. 
Around October 10th.
