Gl CARYSANTHEMUMS 
Originating 
in China, “The Mother of Gardens,” as tiny pink and yellow daisies, Jess than an 
inch in diameter, they were taken into gardens, and, through centuries of breeding 
and selection by painstaking plant-lovers, have been developed into the glorious exhibition 
y ‘HE Chrysanthemum is one of the world’s oldest cultivated flowers. 
and garden varieties we have today. 
There are several distinct types in cultivation today, the most important of which 
we offer. 
The so-called Oriental or Exhibition type, grown under glass in the North and in 
gardens in the South, requires care and good culture to produce the mammoth flowers 
so desired. 
The Hardy Garden Chrysanthemums, the Pompons, Buttons, and Singles are truly 
everybody’s flower, blooming in splendid sprays. 
They are easy to grow and furnish 
quantities of long-lasting cut-flowers, brightening the garden for many weeks.

THE GLORIOUS CHRYSANTHEMUM 
We love Chrysanthemums here at Vestal’s 
and, during the 80 years we have been in 
business, have tested about all the new things 
that have come along. We discarded most of 
them, but kept the best, so that today we 
can offer a fairly large list of really dependable 
varieties in the various types. One never has 
enough Chrysanthemums to cut, so look 
through the Chrysanthemum pages and try 
some of the newer varieties. 
One of the interesting things about Chrys- 
anthemums is the great variety of types. 
Blooming as they do at the end of the 
season when most flowers have finished, these 
many classes easily take the place of other 
kinds of flowers.
