Chrysanthemums are Easy to Grow — Sure to Bloom 

NEW! EARLY-FLOWERING GIANT ENGLISH CHRYSANTHEMUMS 
Here is something really new and different! These varieties originally came from England to Western Canada and then 
to the United States. As late as 1942 there were still very few outside the state of Washington. So far as we know they

flowers of Autumn.

best adapted to disbudding and when grown one bloom per stem they can hold their own with many florists’ “football
