Brilliant New “Storm King” 
Pompon 
FRED F. ROCKWELL 
(Patent applied for) 
Briefly, it is the most gorgeous blending of 
bronze and orange-scarlet tones ever seen in 
a Pompon. Amazingly prolific, the strong, 
branching, 2-foot plants often carry 75 or 
more symmetrically perfect flowers to a 
single spray and several sprays to a plant. 
Without a growing fault, the plant m itself 
is a thing of beauty im its lusty, vigorous 
appearance. We have seen none better. In 
full flower early October, it is remarkably 
frost resistant, retaining its brilliance Jong 
after many others are destroyed. 
This dazzling new Pompon, we believe, is 
destined to be an all-time favorite—a credit 
to one of the great names in horticulture and 
another distinctly worth-while addition to 
the many notable introductions from Bristol. 
Each $1.00; 3 for $2.75; doz. $10.00:
