IDEAL PLANTS FOR A 
Chrysanthemums GORGEOUS DISPLAY IN FALL 
Introductions by the University of Minnesota 
The Minnesota group of Chrysanthemums is especially adapted to regions experiencing early frost, because 
of their extra-early flowering habit and long blooming period. Many colors are available, and all are suitable for 
cutting for home use. We are propagating the best of the varieties that have been introduced, and they have never 
failed to come into blossom before hard frosts come.
