Care of 
Chrysanthemums 
Mums do the best in full sunlight. 
They should be fertilized three times 
during the Summer. (We recommend 
our own well balanced “Special Mix- 
ture.” ) 
Pinch back the tips of the taller 
growing varieties twice during June 
and early July. 
Spraying with bordeau mixture helps 
to prevent foliage diseases on mums. 
Marsh Hay 
Chrysanthemums and other perennials should be covered with Marsh Hay 
after the ground freezes in the Fall. Hay will be for sale at the Nursery in late 
October and November. 
_ Chrysanthemums may be selected from colored pictures at the Nursery.
