CULTURE: CHRYSANTHEMUMS develop into the best plants 
and bear the finest flowers from rooted cuttings started in spring. 
Of course, undivided clumps will bloom from year to year but 
the foliage and flowers will be vastly inferior. They like good rich 
soul and abundant water during the dry weather. A mixture of 
sand, leaf mold and rotted manure is ideal but any fertile friable 
soil slightly acid is very satisfactory. Good drainage is imperative 
as they often winter kill in poorly drained heavy clay soils, but 
they will endure zero temperatures if the proper soil and drain- 
age are provided. All Chrysanthemums bear larger flowers if 
disbudded. However, with the exception of the incurved varieties, 
disbudding is not essential as they are just as effective in sprays 
either in the garden or in bouquets. 
SHIPMENT: April 1 to June J. 
CUSHION CHRYSANTHEMUMS 
These compact dwarf chrysanthemums are unsurpassed for the 
low border and the large rockery. Their ease of culture and long 
blooming season during the summer and early fall months merit 
your first consideration in planning your perennial garden. We 
honestly know of no other perennial that will produce such 
quantities of flowers for so little effort.

compact bushes.

SPOONS 
The spoon chrysanthemums are rapidly coming to the front ranks 
in popularity and for good reasons. Their fascinating form and 
delightful effect in flower arrangement are uniquely artistic. Each 
petal or ray is a hollow tube or quill flattening out at the end 
into a tiny spoon. The tube and spoon of some varieties are the 
same color, in others they are different colors. All bloom in late 
September or October. Color illustration on page 52.
