SUMMER FLOWERING CHRYSANTHEMUMS 
No other Chrysanthemums compare with these new ones, 
offered here, for earliness of bloom. Imagine having Chrysan- 
themums in blooms in your garden starting in early August, 
continuing until the very heavy frost in late fall takes their 
blooms! That is what you will get with these marvelous plants— 
a new feature in hardy Mums. These new Chrysanthemums 
are abundant producers and perfectly hardy as far north as 
Maine. 
One plant, under good growing conditions, will make a 
mound nearly three feet across of good clean foliage and per- 
fectly formed flowers. 
See next page for varieties. 

WHAT A “MUM”?! This picture is reproduced from a photograph taken in 
mid-August of a 2-yr.-old plant of MY LADY. One plant the first season 
will make at least half the size and bloom of this plant shown.
