HARDY CHRYSANTHEMUMS 
Except in the most Northern part of our terri- 
tory, we wish to call to your attention the value of 
HARDY CHRYSANTHEMUMS. The earlier and 
more dwarf varieties give an abundance of flowers 
of a good color range. These are followed by the 
vivid colorings of the Korean Hybrids originated 
by Bristol Nurseries. These superb varieties will 
flower from September 1 to October 20, depending 
upon variety. When flowers are scarce these Mums 
brighten up the garden as nothing else can brighten 
it at that time of year. In the colder areas and in 
sections exposed to frost these plants will often start 
blooming after having been frosted. All in all, 
there is nothing to equal the Koreans for Fall 
flowers. To the Florist, even in areas where early 
frosts occur, we unhesitatingly recommend Korean 
Mums as a plant to be grown in frames and sash- 
houses. This type of Mum as a late Fall cut flower 
is enthusiastically welcomed by the buying public 
as it is impossible to duplicate the Korean colors in 
the greenhouse varieties. We have Florist custom- 
ers who find these Koreans a welcome addition to 
their list of Mums. 
Later on in the season we will mail you Bristol 
Nurseries’ rooted cuttings list of Chrysanthemum 
introductions for 1950 shipment, a list which will 
contain some very interesting new varieties.
