(Chrysanthemum:) No other flower can take the place of Chrysanthemums in your late summer and fall garden and these’hardy, 
dependable varieties in their rich, jewel-like colors have been specially chosen to make sure that those last bouquets aire the 
crowning touch to your flower cutting season. Chrysanthemums are easy to grow, but prefer a wind-sheltered, sunny spot with 
good drainage. Plant 2 to 3 ft. apart. For best results, when 8 in. high, pinch back tops about 3 of height; pinch back again 
at 12 to 14 in. This will produce more blooms and cause bushy full growth. Soak soil twice a week in hot months. When budding 
begins, water frequently to swell buds and bring out earlier blooms before frost. Potted plants are shipped when dormant supply 
is exhausted. Plant spring or fall but plant this spring for flowers this fall. Shipped Prepaid. Shipping information on Page 67.
