4 NEW BRISTOL CHRYSANTHEMUMS FOR 1952 
All 4 at 75¢ each, Potted Plants; 
Retail price is $1.25 each 
ALEX CUMMING—From the last batch of seedlings 
planted by the late master mum breeder. Will delight 
all with its size, vigor and color. Superb 4 inch flowers 
open the richest, purest cerise possible, and soften 
to cleanly pleasant rose. The majestic blooms incurve 
at center and recurve at petal ends, giving overall 
exotic appearance of a greenhouse commercial. Faint- 
ly golden tinge at flower’s center adds lovely glow 
under artificial light. A lusty 2% foot plant, it offers 
many vivid 18 inch stems for cutting single blos- 
soms. Really a bouquet to each plant and a true eye- 
ful from October 3 on. 
FASCINATION—Lovers of the huge in mums will 
really adore this “Glamazon” of the fall garden. A 
large, shapely decorative often 4 inch in size, of 
a lovely silvery lavender pink, deepening the least 
bit at the centers. As a further charm, the blossoms 
occasionally become a dreamy, almost pure white. A 
paragon of beauty from the swelling of the deep 
rosy red buds in late September. A sturdy 2 foot 
grower, it has many long stems, often with only one 
stunning flower per stem. Truly a marvelous blend 
of “big and beautiful.” 
JUBILEE—We offer this jaunty creation as a most 
useful garden ornament. A stocky 18 inch plant, it 
is a mass of red from October 1 on, and will liven 
any yard for weeks. The flower is informally pompon, 
1% inch across, becoming a clear deep red after 
opening hint of crimson. Will be splendid for bedding, 
and sprays are unparalleled for short bouquets. Ans- 
wers a definite need—will be widely grown. 
SPINDRIFT—At Bristol we think of this gem as an 
improved “Jean Cumming”, long the acme of perfec- 
tion for a white flower. Since that finely molded 
classic is one of the parents of “Spindrift” the com- 
parison is obvious. Beautifully double 3 inch decora- 
tive with a tiny hint of cactus petallage, from the 
Dahlia-like edges flaring out. Has softest cream cen- 
ters, but soon becomes as ideally white as any mum. 
A stocky 18-24 inch plant, grand for short-stemmed 
bouquets. Certainly no lover of pure grace and 
beauty can ignore it. October 3.
