gold of medium height with giant Chrysanthemum 
blooms. They are base branching, producing from 
eight to twelve stems of excellent cutting length. The 
laterals or side branches produce just as large, if not 
larger blooms, than the center stems. It is very early, 
coming into bloom fully two weeks ahead of the ordinary 
Sunshine types. The ball-shaped blooms measure from 
four to five inches in diameter and resemble giant in- 
curved Chrysanthemums. Goldsmith is a rich golden 
orange which makes a brilliant display in the garden.
