Valencia 
Athenia—A magnificent and unusual shade of muskmelon-pink. Beau- 
tiful single of fine spray formation. Tall grower flowering in mid- 
November. One of the Korean Hybrid type, best suited for green- 
house culture. 
Bronze Buckingham—Bronze sport of “Mrs. Buckingham.” October 
25th. 
California Yellow—A very lovely single variety of brilliant bright 
yellow. An extremely vigorous grower coming into flower October 
12th. 
Caroline Robbins—When first opening the flowers are deep mallow- 
pink and gradually develop into lilac-rose. The very broad petals 
of this flower much resemble a double Cosmos. 
Crimson Splendor—Rich crimson-maroon intensified with deep gar- 
net tones contrasting with its golden yellow center. Flowering in 
late September. 
G. Herman Kinnicutt—When we say that this variety is an im- 
provement on “Cleopatra” in form, color, and constitution, it is 
a tall statement, but actually true. A very beautiful shade of bronzy 
amber-yellow. 
H. Marie Totty—A brilliant crimson, with scarlet shadings. Novem- 
ber Ist. 
Improved Grenadier—Most easily described as a greatly improved 
Red Rover. A striking brilliant red with clear gold reverse, and 
every petal reflexing to show the color to the best advantage. One 
of the finest Singles of the entire collection. 
Invincible—An exceptionally large deep crimson with bright yellow 
zone around the center disk. The tips of the petals curl back, mak- 
ing a very refined flower. 
Jennifer—Beautiful large yellow Single with dustings of rich carmine- 
red. Very heavy flowered type. Quite a tall grower and does best 
when disbudded. Matures November 15th. 
Margaret W. Wanner—Cadmium orange, suffused deep amber 
bronze. October 25th. 
Melba—A brilliant bronzy red of exceptional merit. November Ist. 
Mensa—Purest white. This is a splendid variety. November 5th. 
Meta Bergen—Color is a brilliant Pompeian red and flower carries 
several rows of petals. It is a splendid keeper. 
Miss Isabelle—Bronze with a silvery reverse to the petals. November 
5th. 
Mrs. E. D. Godfrey—Light pink, very finest variety, for Thanks- 
giving market. November 15th. 
Mrs. James S. Kelly—Blush white with pink lilac shadings. Hand- 
some grower and one that should be well received. 
Patsy—Exhibition Single. Clear yellow with bronzy shadings towards 
the edges. A great favorite with exhibitors who admired its stiff 
stem and perfect habit of growth very much this season. 
Prince Charming—Exhibition Single of soft yellow with gold shad- 
ings. When disbudded will produce flowers at least 6 inches across. 
Scarlet Beauty—Large single flowering of scarlet-red with bright gold 
reverse. A lovely garden variety flowering October 15th. 
Sonia—Exhibition pink, blooming quite a little ahead of Valencia, 
but slightly deeper in color than this variety, and its broad petals 
and rigid habit of growth make it an ideal pot plant. 
Stewart Smith—This is the white Single that made such a wonderful 
record for itself in the exhibitions of the East. Good white Singles 
are scarce, so this will be a welcome addition to the very small list 
now existing. 
Sunburst—The color is an intense burnt orange, each petal carrying 
a lavender sheen, it matures November 15th. 
Valencia—A beautiful shade of Valencia pink without a single trace 
of magenta, one of the loveliest Singles ever introduced. Flowers 
measuring over 4 inches across. 
White Godfrey—Pure white Single. The white form of the original 
“Mrs. E. D. Godfrey.” Excellent for late November cutting. 
Yellow Godfrey—Pure yellow form of the original “Mrs. E. D. 
Godfrey.” Lovely clear yellow with a bright gold center and an 
excellent variety for Thanksgiving work. 
Cascade Chrysanthemum 
These are the very small type of Chrysanthemum used for 
many years to grow specimen Standards. They can also be 
grown most successfully outdoors since they flower in late 
August and are very dainty as cut flowers for the home. How- 
ever, they are entirely too small and fragile for long distance 
shipping, so would not be suitable where one wishes to ship 
flowers any great distance. As a spot of color in the garden to 
intermingle with the larger flowering types or to private estates 
where one wishes to grow specimen “Cascades” or individual 
Standards, they can be strongly recommended. 
Acacia—Fragrant Acacia-colored flowers. A small Single produced on 
long graceful dense sprays and flowering September 20th. Height, 
2 feet. 
Jane Harte—One of the daintiest Single Chrysanthemums ever dis- 
tributed. The color is a beautiful deep yellow. October 30th.
