HARDY CUSHION CHRYSANTHEMUMS 
This is the most popular and outstanding class of Hardy Mums 
available today. They produce a truly amazing display of flowers 
early in the Fall. Hundreds of flowers on a single plant completely 
hide the foliage. All grow compact and bushy, about 15 inches tall 
and one and a half feet across. They are self-branching and need no 
pinching to make short bushy plants. 
They flower early, usually about September 10th or 15th, and 
continue in full display until late October. The flowers are substan- 
tial and durable and the usual early October frosts do not harm them 
for garden display. Flowers are 2% inches across and semi-double. 
W.hen mature, all show a yellow center. 
SENSATIONAL AS POT PLANTS 
Undoubtedly the Cushion Mums will give the greatest display and 
are the most easily grown Pot Mums on the market. No pinching or ~ 
staking is required. And they have loads of flowers. A good 6 inch 
potted Cushion will carry 200 individual flowers. 
DISPLAY PLANTING 
A good display of plants in bloom along the street or highway will 
sell itself. Their value as an attraction and advertisement of your 
business is worth many times their cost. Some growers retail thous- 
ands during a single fall season. Good plants will sell readily at 50 
and 75 cents and single orders of $20.00 are not uncommon. Figuring 
cost of production, no water, no coal, no delivery, the net profit will 
be large. Plant at least 18 by 24 inches.
