4 SPRING, 1954 White Flower Farm 
Chrysanthemums 
This is probably the easiest of all hardy plants to grow and certainly one of 
the most rewarding. They tolerate neglect but to have them at their best 
give them full sun, a rich, well-drained soil and water during the heat of 
summer, To get a sturdy and well-branched plant pinch back the terminal 
shoots at least twice. In winter cover lightly after the ground is frozen to keep 
the shallow roots from heaving. 
Dates of bloom are for Litchfield. For every 100 miles north subtract two 
days; add two for every 100 miles south. Unless otherwise noted these varie- 
ties have proved themselves hardy in New England which is to say they will 
winter successfully nearly anywhere. (Complete cultural directions with 
each order.)
