WESTMINSTER, MARYLAND 43 
For the past four years, under special permit, we 
have been importing these novelties, and we are im- 
porting several new varieties again this spring. As they 
are tested in our gardens, and sufficient stock is worked, 
we intend to offer them to you from time to time as 
they are ready. These novelties have created quite a 
stir with us, as well as with thousands of visitors who 
have seen them. Although they are high in price, they 
are well worth it; and when the customers see them, 
they never object to paying the price for them. Their 
colors, the size of the blooms, and their free flowering 
habits are unequaled by any of the older English mums 
we have ever seen. Practically all of them have very 
large flowers from four to six inches across. They can 
either be grown to give a mass of blooms, or can be 
disbudded and grown for exhibition purposes. Our 
supply of these superior new varieties is very limited; 
therefore, we suggest that you send your order as soon 
as you can, to avoid disappointment. They are no 
harder to grow than any other hardy garden chrysan- 
themum. Any good garden soil in full sun will produce 
excellent blooms. 
PRESENTING EVANGELINE 
Evangeline. A new introduction in ’53. Perhaps 
the most admired of the new giant English 
pink Chrysanthemums in our entire collection. 
The thousands of visitors who have seen it in 
our gardens in the past two years just simply 
raved about it, and so will you when you see 
it bloom in your garden next fall. It has every- 
thing; sturdy grower, healthy foliage, giant 
size blooms often to over 6 inches across, full 
double and cactus-dahlia like form. The color, 
as you well can see, is exquisite. Of such soft 
pastel shade of pink that it will blend in beauti- 
fully with any other flower, as well as any 
furniture or color of the room in the house 
when used as a cut flower. Bush grows 2% to 
3 feet high, with long stems which are un- 
equaled for cutting, and starts to bloom in 
late September and continues on until heavy 
frost. Evangeline is a must for your garden 
in 753. Nice healthly plants, sure to bloom this 
fall. 75c each, 3 for $2.00; $5.00 per 10; $45.00
