THE POPULAR SPOON ‘MUMS 
An interesting and unusual new type of hardy 
Chrysanthemum which deserves a place in 
every ‘mum planting. Their unique appear- 
ance and brilliant color combinations will add 
a note of “delightful novelty” to your garden. 
The individual flower petals are quilled or 
tubular for most of their length, flattening 
out near the tip so that each petal resembles 
a tiny spoon. Plants are hary and vigorous 
growers. Bear a profusion of blooms during 
late fall.
