CHRYSANTHEMUMS IN POTS 
A WONDERFUL IDEA — But sometimes it doesn’t 
pay. Why? Most often, it is a percentage of plants 
that do not form properly and are consequently un- 
salable. Yet potting maintenance and care of the 
NGs cost the same money as the good. 
DO IT THIS WAY 
Grow your Chrysanthemums in beds or field 
rows first — then, lift the best of them into pots, cans, 
etc., just as they are ready to bloom. 
You can’t miss. Every one is bound to be a 
saleable beauty. What could be more profitable? 
You have only 2-3 months of inexpensive outdoor 
culture involved to produce a class item, re-selected 
to top grade, ready for carry-out sale, and welcome 
as merchandise in the shop. Plants left over have 
cost no expensive potting, maintenance and care, 
can be readily sold in other ways, or can be wintered 
right where they stand for future planting stock for 
spring sales.
