You may not have room for Shade Trees, Evergreens, Shrubs, or 
even Roses, but still can use Perennials, which may be effectively ar- 
ranged in spaces too limited for other types of Ornamentals. 
Perennials also have an important place on the grounds of the aver- 
age home, the large estate, roadside and park. 
They may be had in various heights from 1 inch to several feet, in 
numerous shades, from the first call of Spring until silenced by chill 
Winter winds. While they carry over from year to year, transplanting 
and renewing Perennial Beds from time to time is essential to best 
results. Furthermore, we like our gardens to bein style and must find 
space for the new, improved varieties—discarding the less desirable 
ones. Our list of Hardy Perennials is revised from time to time so 
that from the following collection you may choose varieties which 
will meet all requirements.

New Chrysanthemum 
Introductions 
Within the past few years great improvements 
have been made in varieties of Hardy Chrysanthe- 
mums. Among the various experiment stations. 
breeding and testing Hardy Chrysanthemums is 
the U. S. Station at Beltsville, Maryland, which 
has some most promising new 
varieties under test. We list below 
two of the most promising ones 
which have just been released. 
These varieties were not selected 
altogether because of their great 
beauty, but also as to hardiness, 
which is most important. Apparent- 
ly, both these varieties are per- 
fectly hardy. 
FLEUR. Early, double amaranth 
purple. Medium to dwarf com- 
pact grower, heavily branched. 
Flowers 144to2in., borne in great 
profusion. Late September. 
TERRY. Early lemon-yellow. 
Habit of growth very uniform; 
plants dwarf, with good, com- 
pact form. 1% to 2 in. flowers. 
Free flowering. Early September. 

GARDEN CHRYSANTHEMUMS | 
Also known as Hardy Chrysanthemums. However, that does not mean 
that they are absolutely hardy everywhere under all conditions. Even 
here at Waynesboro we lose some of our Chrysanthemums during severe 
Winters. These garden varieties start blooming in August, continuing 
until freezing weather, supplying color when the garden most needs it. 
There are many varieties, but we attempt to list only the ones we con- 
sider most suitable for the communities we serve.

and low borders.
