addition to our listing of Hardy Chrysanthemums. We 
expect to have more of these varieties to offer next year. 
Cody. New for 1949. Named in honor of ‘Buffalo Bill” 
Cody. The flowers are semi-double to double and the 
coloring orchid with white center, is unusual. Fully 
opened blooms often show a small yellow disk. The 
plant has a valuable habit of covering fading flowers 
with new growth. Dense, compact plants which might 
be classed as “Cushion” type, but differs in being low 
and rather flat topped. Starts blooming in July and 
continues until freezes cut it down. 12-15 in. Pot plants, 
75c each; $2.00 per 3; $7.50 per doz.
