HARDY GARDEN MUMS 
As the reflected color of the setting sun in late afternoon gives a glow to the darkening landscape, 
so the Chrysanthemum warms up the autumn days. When the garden flowers of summer take on a 
jaded, weary look, the hardy Chrysanthemums burst into a radiant display of color, beauty and form. 

RED VELVET 
NEW MUMS 
Carnival. Gleaming brilliant burnt-orange, 
double flower over 3 inches in diameter. An 
ideal variety for cutting. Dark green foliage 
to the ground. M-1. $1.00 each; 3 for $2.50. 
Lavender Belle. There have been quite a few 
new “lavender” Chrysanthemums introduced 
in the past few years but this new seedling ts 
a deep brilliant rosy Javender. It proved to 
be the outstanding color in our field in Cctober. 
$1.00 each; 3 for $2.50. 
Marie Reichert. One of the new race of anemone- 
flowered Korean Mums. This new formation 
resembles the “pin-cushion” center as seen in 
Scabiosa; the large, golden-yellow cushion 
center is surrounded by a row of brilliant but @ 
deep maroon petals for a striking effect. Plants 
extra hardy and very free-blooming through 
October. $1.00 each; 3 for $2.50. 
Mellow Glow. Described by its introducer as 
a “matchless suffusion of soft orange-buff, 
peach-pink, and bronze nasturtium tints—a 
bronze with personality.’ Double, 214-inch 
flowers. M-1. $1.00 each; 3 for $2.50. 
Princess Anne. This is another new seedling 
showing the unique pin-cushion, anemone- 
flowered center but the surrounding petals are 
the typical bronze-orange so much desired in 
October-blooming Mums. L-2. $1.00 each; 
3 for $2.50. 
NOTE: Lavender Belle, Marie Reichert and Prin- 
cess Anne are all new seedlings resulting from 
years of painstaking hybridizing by Mr. Louis 
Reichert of Belle Harbor, Long Island, N. Y.
