Wintering Chrysanthemums purchased in the fall is not a problem if you 
heed this. 
Tempéraiure is not the damaging factor — WATER IS. This list of Chrysan- 
themums is hardy in all zones of the U. S. Whether you heel into beds or 
plant into rows, just make sure that you will have no surplus water on your 
plants either in the winter or in the early spring. In the beds, be sure that 
the heeling soil is raised four or five inches above the contour of the area. 
In the field rows, raise a hill five inches above the aisle space first, then plant. 
That’s all there is to it!
