GROWERS OF FINE PERENNIALS Z 

In their choice of a source for Hardy Chrysanthemum stock, our critical customers, good tradesmen all 
(WE DO NOT RETAIL), ask two questions. 

HOW DO THE VARIETIES QUALIFY? 
Hundreds are tried — few are chosen. This list is as 
modern as tomorrow, all grand varieties with a sepa- 
rate, select appeal. We maintain a comprehensive 
nursery trial, perhaps the largest, and, if our work 
is considered, among the most ambitious of any pri- 
vate nursery concern that serves the trade exclusively. 
This is a risk-reducing service, a profit safety factor, 
certainly not a small consideration in the value of the 
plant you buy. 
HERE THEY ARE! 
ALABASTER (English). Large pure white with slightly 
incurved petals. Will grow to five inches across if disbudded. 
POT PLANTS — Per 10, $2.50; Per 100, $15.00 
ALGONQUIN. A very hardy variety, with healthy foliage. 
One of the best yellow Mums, producing pure, bright yellow 
flowers three inches across. 
HEAVY FIELD GROWN — Per 10, $2.25; Per 100, $18. 00 
AMBER GOLD. This is a distinctly different new variety. A 
medium tall grower, it bears its flowers atop a strong, 
heavily foliaged stem. The flowers are not generally clus- 
tered, 242 to 3 inches, fully double, and the color is not 
duplicated in any other variety. 
HEAVY FIELD GROWN — Per 10, $3.00; Per 100, $25.00 
POT PLANTS — Per 10, $2.50; Per 100, $15.00 
ANN, (USDA). Hardy and early flowering even in the 
rugged climate of New England, where it found its origin. 
Flowers are fully double, white, averaging 2 to 3 inches 
across.. This compact, free-flowering plant, has been proven 
remarkably frost-resistant. 
POT PLANTS — Per 10, $3.50; Per 100, $25.00 
AUTUMN BREATH. A striking oddity. It is a firm duplex, 
rigidly showing a burnt cinnamon-bright yellow bi-color in 
symmetrical focus. It compares with the straw flower. 
The flowers appear in extra-ordinary abundance on literally 
dozens of thin but sturdy stems. It is a good clean grower, 
bright and novel, and appears the second week in Septem- 
ber. 
HEAVY FIELD GROWN — Per 10, $3.50; Per 100, $30.00 
AUTUMN LIGHTS. Coppery bronze semi-double blossoms 
with gleaming orange overcast. Compact, branchy plant, 
healthy, dark green foliage, unusually hardy. Height, 14% 
ft. Late September. 
HEAVY FIELD GROWN — Per 10, $3.50; Per 100, $15.00 
AUTUMN SONG. Large wine rose, shading to carmine. 
This is one of the most outstanding in the Chicago series. 
Early and perfectly hardy, clean. 
POT PLANTS — Per 10, $3.00; Per 100, $21.00 
AVALANCHE. This variety easily takes its place among 
the best whites that we have ever seen. The flowers are 
very large, measuring 4 inches across. The flower petals 
are long, ray-like extensions that occur in so good numbers 
that the effect is richly double. It is a perfect cut flower 
type; early, free-flowering, tall and straight stemmed. 
POT PLANTS — Per 10, $2.50; Per 100, $15.00 
A CHALLENGE TO ANY COMPARSION!
