Cushion Chrysanthemums 
A group of low-growing ‘Mums, forming mounds of blooms, reminding 
one of the old-fashioned Azalea. The plants grow about 10 to 12 inches 
high and spread 2 feet or more. They flower quite early. All during 
September they are literally covered with hundreds of flowers which last 
over a long period. With a little straw protection, the plants are quite 
hardy. All are descendents of the Chrysanthemum Amelia, more often 
called Pink Cushion ‘Mum.

Little Bob Each 60c, Three $1.50, Doz. $5.00 
A charming low-growing garden Chrysanthemum of Eng- 
lish origin which will surely be grown by everyone interested 
in ‘Mums. The plant spreads to about 24 inches in diam- 
eter and develops into a perfectly symmetrical mound. In 
early autumn hundreds of small mahogany-bronze double 
button-like flowers appear on short stiff wirelike stems. 
When in bloom its foliage is almost invisible. One sees 
nothing but a mound of the handsomest blooms. Its ap- 
pearance is far superior to the so-called Cushion ‘Mums. 
We are sure you will like Little Bob. 
Little Jim 
This is the exact counterpart of Little Bob, same habit of 
growth, same time of bloom, and the same number of 
blooms. The only difference is in the color, which of Little 
Each 60c, Three $1.50, Doz. $5.00 
Jim is light tan with pink overtones. The effect is most 
artistic and a well-grown plant of Little Jim will give you 
much to enjoy and be proud of. 
Korean Chrysanthemums 
These new creations are especially fine for cold climates where the ordinary Chrysanthemum 
winter-kills. They are most attractive in color, very early blooming, easier to grow, and more profuse. 
The lovely new pastel shades, which simply defy accurate description or true color reproduction, 
suggest the Gerbera in their daintiness. Cut with short stems, they make the most charming table 
decorations, yet are capable of striking decorative uses if the entire branching sprays are used. 
They are compelling for color effect in the garden.
