HARDY GARDEN CHRYSANTHEMUMS 
These modern hardy mums are selected for their ability 
to produce quantities of blooms in general garden condi- 
tions. Increasing interest in garden mums is due to recent 
development of new varieties that bloom safely ahead of 
frost, while a number of varieties stand the first frost that 
usually gets the Dahlias. This prolongs the blooming season 
in your garden by several weeks.
