CHRYSANTHEMUMS 
The new hardy chrysanthemums have been bred for earliness, hardiness 
and new form and color so bear little resemblance to the varieties we 
knew a few years ago. They may be had in bloom from Aug. to Nov. 
To avoid confusion and duplication, we have selected the finest repre- 
sentatives in the various classes and colors. 
Many gardeners with limited space are planting their ‘‘“mums’’ in rows 
in vegetable areas or cold frames and moving the clumps into their gardens 
when they begin to flower. They are especially effective against a founda- 
tion planting of shrubs and evergreens. As cut-flowers they’re unsurpassed. 
Chrysanthemums lend themselves to artistic ar- 
rangement. English Ivy and Hardy Bitter Sweet 
were used in this one.
