Silver Moon Each 55c, Three $1.45, Doz. $4.75 
This gleaming white Chrysanthemum has a degree of warmth and in- 
tensity that is entirely new, and for which there is a real need. No other 
kind like it! No other attains such early perfection! The double milky 
white petals combine with the pale yellow central halo to suggest the 
play of soft moonbeams. A showier Shasta Daisy in effect. Mild, sweet 
fragrance, remarkably contrasting dark green foliage, a fine lusty 21- 
foot plant producing flowers from September on, equal to the finest 
greenhouse product, yet unusually frost resistant. These are the out- 
standing qualities of “Silver Moon.”

NEW DWARF POMPONS 
September Flowering 
September Bronze Each 55c, Three $1.45, Doz. $4.75 
The warm bronze tints of autumn are beautifully reflected in about 
the shapeliest little Pompon blossoms you have ever seen; quantities 
of them shading from golden bronze to intense warm bronze simply 
cover the plant from mid-September on through into November or 
killing frost. The color effect is always good because the plant is uni- 
formly attractive all through—no jaded appearance at any time. We 
say September Bronze is absolutely the most colorful early Chrysan- 
themum to date. 
September Cloud Each 55c, Three $1.45, Doz. $4.75 
Beautifully rounded blossoms purest white in color with primrose shad- 
ing in center, wonderfully dark green contrasting foliage. Nicely 
rounded, compact plant completely covered with flowers from mid- 
September until frost. The best white Pompon. 
September Gold Each 55c, Three $1.45, Doz. $4.75 
Brilliant golden yellow blossoms, trim and neat, twenty-five or more 
to a spray, completely cover the shapely, wel! rounded plants by mid- 
September and go on and on until the season’s end. Colorful mounds, 
the plants are 18 inches in height—much wider the first season. Im- 
mensely prolific and somewhat earlier in succeeding years. 

CHRYSANTHEMUM, “ASTRID” (Northland Daisy) 
Astrid is a hybrid of the extremely hardy species, C. Arcticum, and the 
first hybrid of this variety to be introduced. The single, daisy-like flow- 
ers are three inches or more in diameter, and are a lovely shade of shell- 
pink, warmed with old rose tints, with a bright yellow center. The plants 
have attractive light green foliage, not bothered by diseases or insects. It 
is the hardiest hybrid Daisy we know of, having come through the past 
severe winters without protection and without damage.

NEW CHRYSANTHEMUM, 
Ne. Chiang Kai-shek 
(Plant Patent No. 634) : 
Beautifully formed flowers, fully double, composed of stiff petals able to 
withstand any and all bad weather. The petals are perfectly arranged, 
creating a formal effect, so nice one would think the flowers were grown in 
a greenhouse. The color is a blending of chrome-yellow, cadmium-yellow, 
and soft tinted old gold which under bright sun or artificial light shows a 
delicate undertone of rose. Most difficult to describe. However, we con- 
sider it the finest Chrysanthemum in our collection, if not the finest in the 
country. A magnificent plant which portrays autumn _in all its glory and 
riot of color better than. any other flower we have. The perfectly shaped 
flowers average two inches in diameter, are carried on stiff, thin stems 
excellent for cutting, foliage deep green. Plant spreads to about 2 feet, and 
is about 2 to 2% feet tall. In full flower in September, often showing 
blooms in late August. Don‘t miss having this most beautiful variety in your
