CHRYSANTHEMUMS—Garden sorts. Space does 
not permit us to list and describe the varieties 
we grow. We grow only those varieties of 
proven merit for the Pacific Northwest. We 
can supply fine bushy plants from 3-inch pots 
and in quart cans in separate colors and 
types, or mixtures all properly labeled. These 
will be sent at the proper planting time for 
this area, usually May 15 to 30. Nothing is 
gained by earlier planting except height, 
with the attendant staking required. Bud for- 
mation on Chrysanthemums is started by shor- 
tening days not size of plant, so it follows 
that a bushy plant having five to ten leads 
put out quite late will produce a shorter plant 
better adapted to take the wind and rain we 
get without lodging and be much more sat- 
isfactory in every sense; give these plants a 
try, won't you? You won't be disappointed; 
these are all good English varieties.
