CANARY WONDER 
These are the last five originations of the 
late Alex Cumming, the master hybridizer of 
Mums and other hardy perennials. 
ALEX CUMMING. Mammoth, colorful, 
vigorous—1952’s Wonder Mum! Superbly 
molded, 4-inch flowers open entrancingly 
rich, pure cerise and gently mature to de- 
lightful rose color. Majestic blooms incurve 
at the center and recurve at the petal tips. 
Exotic as a big greenhouse Mum. A 2'%- 
foot eyeful from early October on. 
CANARY WONDER. One of the most ra- 
diant gems. Breathtaking, unmatched soft 
canary-primrose-yellow—absolutely the only 
pompon of its color. Perfection personified, 
with 1 14-1nch balls literally swarming over a 
columnar, 214-foot bush. Magnificent sprays 
to cut; blends with any color. Mid-Septem- 
ber on. 
FASCINATION. A huge, lovely decorative 
4 inches across or more, of stunning silvery 
lavender-pink with centers a wee bit deeper. 
As further charm, it offers an occasional 
bloom of misty, creamy white. A paragon of 
beauty from late September on, when deep 
rosy red buds swell so enticingly. Often 
only one gigantic flower to a stem. Pro- 
liftc, 2-foot plant.

SPINDRIFT 
JUBILEE. A sturdy, 18-inch plant, a mass of 
glowing red from late September on. Livens the 
yard for weeks. Informal 14-inch pompons be- 
come clear deep red after the opening hint of 
crimson mellows. Splendid for bedding and 
bunching. 
SPINDRIFT. Luscitously double, 3-inch decorative, 
with a tiny hint of cactus petalage, flaring faintly 
like a dahlia. As pure white as any Mum; a 
creamy center softens it deliciously. Stocky, 
18 to 24-inch plant splendid for short-stemmed 
bouquets. Early October.
