Wonderful, New, Hardy ‘Mums for Fall Splendor 
We are happy and proud to present these new perfections in the Chrysanthemum family. They 
are early blooming, flowers large, colors rich and showy. They are selections especially recom- 
mended by ‘Mum specialists, and chosen after a careful study of all new, outdoor types. Hardy, 
dependable, providing a riot of color from August until heavy frosts check their display. Last fall, 
from far and near, came hundreds of letters, full of glowing praise for Ferris’ Mums.

GREENHOUSE MUMS 
To Grow in Your Garden 
So many of our customers have been asking for these. 
’ They are not hardy in Iowa, Minnesota and other areas 
where winters are cold. In the South and along the 
West Coast, they grow, bloom and winter with complete 
success. In the North they should be grown outside in 
the garden until frost, when they should be potted and 
brought indoors to flower. The large flowering varieties, 
Indianapolis Bronze and Mrs. H. E. Kidder, should be 
tied to a stake to develop best plants; to produce the 
huge blooms they should be disbudded, leaving from 
one to three flowers per plant. 
P126—INDIANAPOLIS BRONZE. Very large, elegant 
bronze, incurved, 
P127—MRS. H. E. KIDDER. Incurved, 7-in. flowers of 
lemon yellow. 
P128—CAPTAIN COOK. Handsome rose-pink pompon. 
Very floriferous. 
P129—FIREBIRD. Dark bronze, button type Mum.
