CANDY Delicious and desirable, a treat to the most 
discriminating taste for the grand Chrysan- 
themum family. A mound of flowers cascading from a full 
crest and right to the ground in solid mass. Eighteen 
inches tall, three feet through in the first year. Color is 
a prominent, full pink with a sugar-sheen (see the name?) 
and individually average more than two inches. The blend 
is to just enough salmon and gold in the center to spotlite 
each blossom. It’s a beautiful display item, and each stem 
straight and true makes it a profitable cut flower.

CONTRAST A distinct departure. In the field, 
despite the literally endless array 
of varieties around them, plants of Contrast were marked 
different everywhere they were shown. It grows with a 
character quite different than anything that we are ac- 
customed to. Instead of the conventional mound formed 
by semi-low growing types, a bowl-like effect is achieved, 
a flat mass across the top and a cascade of bloom to the 
ground. The duplex flowers are a harmonious contrast 
with every soft rose petal tipped yellow. It is a strong 
sturdy grower, coming in around the first week in Sept.

NABOB A rich, exotic soft purple with a metallic 
sheen that brings it to the “plastique” 
shades used so effectively in modern decoration. There is 
absolutely no hint of magenta either in the prime bloom 
or the fading flower. It grows medium tall and the deep, 
lush, forest green foliage, growing to the ground, is a com- 
plimentary frame for the abundance of very rich flowers.

DRAGON LADY A new mum-color too — 
a satin smooth Chinese 
Red, more striking than Caliph, deeper than Red Velvet. 
Starting mid-September, it bloomed continuously for six 
weeks and didn’t fade a shade. Mature flowers develop 
spoon tips. Foliage is an outstanding deep green, almost 
black, extra large, bright as waxed leather. It is a decora- 
tive growing bush, and a red mass in bloom.

J AYVEFF Flowers are huge, 4 inches and more in true 
wig diameter, fully double, no centers. The 
color is a deep, positive pink with a dazzling, drifting sheen. 
No other color or flowers form like it. Bushy plant bears 
straight stems by the dozens, no pinching. Grows to 2 ft.. 
vigorous and healthy, bushy. Flowers appear here from the 
15th of September and bear without fading until severe frost.

FORTY-NINER W2s there a prospector’s pick 
at Comstock that ever uncov- 
ered the richness of the pure gold that you will see? The 
bonanza bursts into bleom early in September, a shower 
of the cleanest yellow gold flowers, and they stay fast and 
in full bloom well into frost. Each flower is fully double 
with an incurve. They are uniform in sprays at the top 
of straight eighteen inch stems. For cutting, they’re perfect. 
For speciment planting, it will make a three foot circle the 
focus of sunshine all fall.

REDCOAT As hardy as the men it pays tribute 
and as brilliant as the uniforms they 
wear. A strong sturdy grower resisting with casual aban- 
don the culprits that take their toll from others less sturdy. 
Flowers are a really new red in Chrysanthemums. Ver- 
milion is the closest comparison. Fully double, they appear 
on strong yet succulent stems growing medium high in pro- 
fusion. This one will be a leader par excellence for years 
to come.

NANKEEN A medium tall golden cushion. Only 
the growth characteristics bring it 
into the cushion classification. The flowers are completely 
different from any appearing on the cushion varieties. They 
are fully double, tightly knit, and exhibit no center even in 
their late stages. The color is that of polished gold, and, 
in the direct sun it is flushed with a shimmering sheen that 
makes a group planting a lively dynamic scene.

MISS L ACE Pert and saucy, this is the glamour 
of the new group. True Grand- 
mothers light pink, a bursting shower of fully double, 3 inch 
blooms sweeping en-masse atop stately upright stems rising 
in quantity 22 ft. in perfect symmetry. Excellent cut- 
flowers, blooms first week in September, and the fresh 
pink flowers do not fade for weeks.

SALUTE 4A perfect deep purple, the memorial tri- 
bute shade, dedicated to our memories. 
Soft and fluffy, yet so double the petals seem to be woven 
into a tight knit to accommodate them all. It is small, ex- 
tremely bushy, growing to 12 inches and is completely cover- 
ed with mellow, deeply satisfying blooms so profuse that the 
foliage is completely hidden. Blooms first week in Septem- 
ber and continues for weeks without fading. It’s wonder- 
ful, born only for the purpose it so clearly serves.
