1948 LIST OF MODERN GARDEN CHRYSANTHEMUMS i Departm: 
The hardy Chrysanthemum in recent years has undergone many changes so that today's 
varieties greatly surpass those offered a few years ago. We believe our listing to be 
one of the most extensive collections of these modern mums available at this time. We 
ship vigorously growing plants which have been established in "Vita-Band 40" plant 
bands which are growth stimulating as they have been treated with nutrients. 
Notes- Before ordering be sure to read the Conditions of Sale given on the last 
page- Quantities of many varieties are limited so that early ordering is recommended.
